ACT 2021 Season Summary
Too much ACT season goodness to recap here but look out for the ACT 2021 Season Review article coming out this week!
Here’s a little teaser….
Queens of the Week
Cheryl & Rhali – Melbourne Victory legend Christine Nairn, who is retiring to become a firefighter.
In honour of @victorywleague legend @NairnChristine announcing her retirement, enjoy this ‘Frankie & the Americans’ snippet with Christine, @ellireed and @laurenkb31 as they got excited about a hot xmas.#WLeague Season 5 pic.twitter.com/0pZDRNycok
— Cheryl Downes (she/her) (@ChicasFootball) September 16, 2021
Eric – Tahnai Annis and Camille Wilson. The Philippines were trailing 1-0 in the dying minutes of their Asian Cup qualifier against Nepal, before Annis scored in the 90th minute and Wilson scored in the second minute of injury time, sealing a 2-1 victory.
Dale – Czech Republic goalkeeper Barbora Votíková, for holding the high-powered Netherlands attack to a single goal in the 1-1 draw between the two sides. She was only beaten by an 82nd minute goal from Vivianne Miedema.
Steffen – fun-loving Tillies – a timely reminder that even at the national team level it’s important to have fun. It’s the Australian way so kudos to the coaching team for recognising this.
