SMH reporting Ryan McGowan tests positive in Scotland for Covid-19 and will miss ACL

Thank you I missed that probably one of the bigger stories leading into the tournament 

I wonder if they asked to see proof of the test?

That would so typical of Smurf management.
Rugari reported it so it most likely is true.

Anyways I hope one of the teams can win a match to make it interesting 

Oh wow..... Not having a go at you bud but this is a pretty depressing time for Australian Football when the best we can hope for is one team winning a match.....

A rare glass-half-full piece regarding each of the Aussie club's chances at the ACL. Sydney did look pretty sharp the other night, albeit against an underdone Olyroo outfit. Victory might have the best chance of progressing considering their opponents. Who knows what's happening with Perth!   

The other clubs have more money and we have lost a lot of good players.

Here we go starting tonight predicated line up for Sydney?

Isn't it Perth tonight?

Yeah sorry just realised 

Wish it was Sydney tonight though... think they'll do okay.

Perth on the other hand..... and no idea of their line up. Do they even have enough players to field a team?

https://www.foxsports.com.au/football/asian-champions-league/match-centre/ACL202001143

this is their team so i will guess the line up:

Castro Bruno D'Agostino/Ingham

Sullivan Wilson Stynes 

Bodnar Lachman Aspropotamitis Walsh

Reddy

also read: malik and kilkenny are out injured 

What are the options to be able to watch these AFC matches, I currently have no subscriptions.

I am guessing  maybe Kayo for $25 a month, but apart from KAYO what are the other options?

I'm surprised they were able to even make the trip. Is Sage still in charge?

.

Just renewed my kayo. $25 to see Glory get smashed a handful of times over the next month. We're going out for Thai at half time if we're losing 5 0 - otherwise have to cook something.

Group H................P|W|D|L||GF|GA|GD||pts
Yokohama............2|2.|0|0.||06|01.|+5||06
Shanghai SIPG.....2|2.|0|0.||04|02.|+2||06
Jeonbuk................2|0|1|1.||04|06.|.-2||01
Sydney FC.............2|0|1|1.||03|08.|.-6||01

Shanghai victory leaves Sydney FC five points off ACL progression https://www.sbs.com.au/shanghai-victory-leaves-sydney-fc-five-points-off-acl-progression?cid=twgapp:socialshare:copylink

The table should read both Jeonbuk and Sydney 3 games played for 1 draw and 2 losses. Goal difference is correct.

Fixed
Group H................P|W|D|L||GF|GA|GD||pts
Yokohama............2|2.|0|0.||06|01.|+5||06
Shanghai SIPG.....2|2.|0|0.||04|02.|+2||06
Jeonbuk...............3|0|1|2.||04|06.|.-2||01
Sydney FC............3|0|1|2.||03|08.|.-6||01

Gonna require 3 wins from the last 3 games to make it through for Sydney, also pending other results. Looks like knockout round is out the door for Sydney, hopefully they can get least a win and draw for consolation for the effort of travelling over.

The rest of the games are mostly at midnight so the hardcore of the hardcore fans will be watching 

Perth and victory playing midnight tonight 

Yea I won’t be watching but good luck to them. Without sounding pessimistic I give them both no chance but as always if there is an Australian or an Australian team playing they will always have my support 

Bruno butchers a good chance, Perth should be leading 3-1...  Hanging on at 2-1.

10 minutes later and it's 3-2 to Shanghai...

ffs perth lollllll.
Bruno then those 2 goals. 

Similar thing just happened in the Victory match. Should've been 3-1 haha.  Coulda, shoulda, woulda.
