An A-League Women clash between Perth Glory and Canberra United has been postponed due to Western Australia’s hard border.
The match was originally scheduled to go ahead in Perth on Saturday, but with Canberra having played at home and in Adelaide over the opening two rounds, it meant they were unable to enter WA without quarantining.
Glory are a perfect 2-0 after beating the Roar 2-1 in Perth and 1-0 in the return trip to Brisbane.
It’s likely Glory’s men and women’s teams will now be set for an even longer stint on the road.
The men’s team have been on the road since beating Adelaide in round one.
Their next home match is scheduled for January 15.
But given WA’s border won’t be opening until February 5, they could be forced to stay on the road for all of January.
“A plan for both the Perth Woman’s and Men’s teams to manage the border restrictions will be communicated on Wednesday, 15th December.” A-Leagues commissioner of football Greg O’Rourke said.
