Brisbane Roar made history after defeating Singapore Women’s Premier League (WPL) All-Stars 7-1 in a landmark friendly.
In Singapore for their first-ever overseas tour, Brisbane’s Ninja A-League team flexed their muscles in front of more than 2,000 fans during the international break on Friday night.
Singapore star Danelle Tan, Evodokia Popadinova, Tamar Levin, Emily Pringle and Daisy Brown all scored for Roar on an unforgettable night.

“You look up in the stands, all these young girls and boys,” said Tan via The Straits Times.
“So supportive, so willing to come down, take time off their Friday night to come and support and watch a game like this.
“Just looking around and seeing the support we get, it’s been amazing.”
Roar goalkeeper Emma Gibbon added: “It was really cool to be a role model for some kids who maybe want to be a professional soccer player one day.
“Maybe (they) haven’t seen people of the level that we get to play, and they can aspire to come play in Australia one day.”
