Jasmyne Spencer returns for Melbourne City in Friday evening’s Westfield W-League clash against Brisbane Roar, reducing the blow of Kyah Simon’s injury-enforced absence.
Simon’s season is done with an ankle problem but Spencer is back in the fold after missing last week’s Melbourne Derby due to personal reasons.
The American forward has struck four goals in eight matches this season and will give City some needed firepower in the attacking third.
