Matilda's abroad

Aivi Luik played the entirety of Hacken's 3-1 Svenska Cupen semi-final win over Djurgarden after extra time, getting a yellow card in the first minute of first half stoppage time in regulation time.

Häcken vs Hammarby final. They’ll also potentially play a Europa Cup final over two legs and will play each other home and away in the Damallsvenskan. They could play each other five times in one season!
 
I think if Boston Legacy go for her she'll definitely go.

Her wife's a Bostonian native and will most likely want to live there when they retire.

I feel like they’d wanna live in Australia. A bit easier to live here than there despite COL, plus nicer weather.

But yeah if Boston Legacy or Denver Summit sign her that would be huge for them. An expansion team signing a (I guess now formerly) world-class striker is massive. She could also go to London City Lionesses to avoid having to move from London, they’re a newer team (promoted to the WSL last season) but signed a mixture of young talents (like Jana Fernandez) and old stars (like Kosovare Asllani and Daniëlle van de Donk).
 
There is no doubt that we are looking at generational change for the Matildas.
Oh for sure. We need to clean out some deadwood and get new players in. American/European teams and Japan do this all the time: out of form players don’t get picked. We need to do the same.

I wouldn’t say we have any deadwood but we do need to regenerate the squad.
In fact a mix of new and old would be very beneficial during the rebuilding phase.

We would still keep some experience but players like Michelle Heyman and Emily van Egmond have to go. And no, we are not bringing back Emily Gielnik or Aivi Luik and certainly not Kyah Simon.

If Sam Kerr ends up going to London City Lionesses she'll be teammates with Alanna Kennedy for both club and country also.
 
Leah de Oliveira on the bench for Marítimo. 1–1 at home with Benfica at half time, pretty good result. Would love to see her score the winner even if it’s more likely she gets picked by South Africa than us.
 
Charlize Rule not back from the Women's Asian Cup yet following the Matildas' campaign and not in the matchday squad altogether for Brighton in their WSL game against Liverpool.
 
Sophie Harding came on in the 72nd minute for Fort Lauderdale United in their 2-0 USL Super League loss to Lexington SC. No game time for Madison McComasky, who was an unused substitute.
