Mile Pushes For Roos Spot

as seen on au.fourfourtwo.com

Aussie Mile Jedinak showed a glimpse of what he can offer the Socceroos by scoring a double in Antalyaspor's 2-0 win over Genclerbirligi in the Turkish Super Lig.


The 25-year-old midfielder struck twice in similar circumstances in the first-half on Sunday's Super Lig clash, to take his season tally to six goals in all competitions in Turkey.

It didn't take long for Jedinak to make his mark on Sunday, scoring after just three minutes when he nodded on a long free-kick.

The goal was very similar to one he scored against Kasimpasa earlier this season suggesting he's a real threat from set-pieces.

The former Central Coast Mariner almost had a second not long after when he was first to a right-wing cross into the box but his control let him down and Gencler keeper Serdar Kulbilge pounced.

But on 45 minutes, Jedinak wouldn't be denied when he found plenty of space in the box after a long ball forward, allowing the Aussie time to control before lashing in a fine right-foot volley.

Meanwhile, Bruce Djite came off the bench for Genclerbirligi on 61 minutes and forced a low save out of Antalyaspor stopper Omer Catkic after a nice left-foot snapshot...continued with a full weekend Aussies Abroad wrap
