Ins & Outs: Adelaide v Wanderers

Head coach Robbie Hooker has named his extended squad for Friday night’s fixture against Adelaide United.

The Wander Women head to Adelaide on Friday, aiming to bounce back from a tough 1-1 draw with Perth and a round two loss to the Reds.

Captain Amy Harrison’s stunning free-kick wasn’t enough to secure victory last week, with a late penalty costing the Wanderers all three points despite strong performances from Sham Khamis, Ella Buchanan, and Danika Matos.

A win against Adelaide could revive the Wanderers’ finals hopes. The Reds, sitting sixth, have impressed this season but are coming off back-to-back defeats.

Key players Fiona Worts and Emily Condon will test the Wanderers’ defense, while injuries continue to challenge Robbie Hooker’s side.

The Wanderers aim to turn around their poor record against Adelaide and close out 2024 with a crucial win.
