Head coach Geoff Abrahams has named his extended squad for Saturday night’s clash against Canberra United.
The Western Sydney Wanderers face a tough test this Saturday as they host undefeated Canberra United at Wanderers Football Park.
After back-to-back losses to Adelaide and Wellington earlier this week, Geoff Abrahams’ side will need to tighten up defensively and show resilience against a Canberra team brimming with confidence.
The visitors’ young stars have been in fine form recently, with Mary Stanic-Floody and Sofia Christopherson creating chances for Sienna Dale and Sasha Grove.
To challenge the top-of-the-table side, the Wanderers will need their defence to stand tall and replicate the composure that earned them a clean sheet in the Sydney Derby.
Expect a high-intensity clash where every tackle and clearance could make the difference.
Western Sydney Wanderers squad: 2. Janae DEFAZIO, 3. Wang YING, 4. Poppie HOOKS, 5. Milly BENNETT, 6. Amy CHESSARI, 7. Amy HARRISON, 8. Olivia PRICE, 9. Kim SOEUN, 10. Yuan CONG, 11.
