Glory’s international representatives have continued to sparkle during a busy couple of weeks for Australia’s junior representative teams, both male and female.
ALW goalkeeper Jess Skinner is heading back to Perth from Canberra with a medal in her luggage after helping the Young Matildas to victory in the PacificAus Four Nations Tournament.
A 5-2 win over Thailand sealed the title for the young Aussies who had earlier accounted for both Vanuatu and the Solomon Islands.
Switching to the men and Glory representatives Adam Bugarija, Zach Lisolajski and Jaylan Pearman are one step away from featuring in the AFC U20 Asian Cup Final.
Trevor Morgan’s Young Socceroos will take a 100% record in the tournament into this evening’s semi-final clash with Japan, having already secured a place at this year’s FIFA U20 World Cup by virtue of reaching the last four.
The game can be watched live and FREE on 10Play from 7:30pm WST tonight.
Two more Glory youngsters, Alex Bolton and Christian Pullella, have also enjoyed success overseas as part of the Joeys squad which took out the honours in the Hattrick U17 International Tournament.
The Joeys defeated both Korea Republic and hosts Saudi Arabia, before drawing their final game against Oman to clinch the title.
And an honourable mention goes to Glory ALW striker Kelli Brown who made her senior debut for New Zealand in the first of the Football Ferns’ two friendlies against Costa Rica.
Michael Mayne’s side secured a 1-1 draw and a 1-0 victory.
