A-League Women News
Melbourne Victory were unstoppable with Kennedy White's third goal adding to a commanding 4-1 win.

One club in "hibernation," another being propped up one season at a time. The A-League Women is never dull, and there's always a thrill of anticipation as a new season dawns.
As Truro prepare to make the longest round trip for a professional league match in English football history, here's a look at the furthest that teams have to travel every season.
