The land down under has their domestic league carrying the women’s soccer flag while the other major European leagues are on a break. The Liberty A-League is a great league to watch if you can get past the time difference. It might not be a bad idea to start watching the A-League to get used to the time difference for the World Cup this summer.
Plus, we bear witness to some young Matildas stars and NWSL stars across the league. Let’s look at the Top 5 Goals for this week from the Liberty A-League.

This was quite the header from TJ Vlajnic, who was able to get to this cross through a sea of bodies.
Vlajnic was able to head the ball back across the goal, but it seemed to hang in the air forever. The height was too much for the goalie to get a hand to it, and the ball found the back of the net with this amazing header.
It’s rare to see…
