Thorns FC Abroad | Hayley Raso scores as Brisbane Roar move atop W-League standings | Portland Timbers
Hayley Raso led Brisbane Roar FC to a 2-0 victory over Perth Glory, scoring a game-winner in the 59th minute. The goal—Raso’s second of the season—came following a flurry of attempts within the box. A set-piece corner was sent to the near-side of the box, where it was headed toward goal, but then abruptly blocked by a Glory defender who got her own head on the ball. The deflection sent the ball flying high in front of goal, where Clare Polkinghorne headed the ball down inside the six in perfect position for Raso to finish it.
