Brazil and Argentina were the latest FAs to take the Saudi money during this international break, playing a friendly in the authoritarian regime’s capital, Riyadh. An unremarkable game marked with this quite unremarkable penalty from Manchester City’s Gabriel Jesus. Rotten all-round.
Voting remains open in the FSA Awards 2019 in association with BeGambleAware, and the Women’s Player of the Year is one of the most coveted titles up for grabs. Previous winners include the Arsenal pair of Beth Mead (2018) and Sari van Veenendaal (2016), and Man City’s Jill Scott (2017), and it could be a showdown between those two WSL heavyweights again, with City’s Steph Houghton and Arsenal’s Vivianne Miedema (pictured above) doing battle alongside four other fan favourites.
