Just saw a video of this. That seemed brutal. Arms much further out from the body have been deemed natural position.
My god handballs are such a coin flip.
Two games tonight, starting with the Aloisi Derby at 8pm!
John Aloisi won’t be sacked by Western United even if his side falls to Brisbane.
— Joey Lynch (@joeylynchy) December 15, 2023
Chairman Jason Sourasis tells me he backs Aloisi and that he wants him to lead the team into Tarneit.
“John Aloisi is a great human being and stands for everything our organization stands for.”
Well he is gone by Xmas then
Should be a good game this. Alosi vs Aloisi and one team all attack, the other desperate to redeem themselves. Probably end up 0-0...
Fantastic save by Freke to deny Danzaki 1 v 1. 0-0

Penalty for Western!
Very soft. Should be overturned surely.

VAR says no. Stays 0-0

That first season at the Roar seems like a life time ago, he clearly has reverted to the mean since then.

Lofthouse in trouble here?
Only a yellow. 0-0
Roar have it in the back of the net but it's offside, 0-0
Western have bossed this game comfortably, yet now find themselves down 1-0 due to a penalty.
You could almost feel it coming. When it rains it pours.
Also, please no more calling it 'The Aloisi Derby'.... 🤢

That's barely more of a pen than the one in the first half. Unlucky for WU but they are paying the price for failing to convert all those chances.
Penha should shoot from inside the box more often! 1-1

Shades of that Wellington Olympic v Napier City where everyone thought a goal stood.
Mind boggling.

My excuse was that even though I was watching, I was also making a wee snacky snack and a beverage in the background.
Maybe today will kickstart Penha. Good goal, before it was ruled out, and a well slotted pen.
WU generally better today but still short of any kind of reliable scorer.
