We have to respect our opponents but I am confident in my team’s ability of staging up two strong performances against both Azerbaijan and Montenegro. ” Since the last international window in which Malta played, there were several moves which involved the national team players especially the foreign-based ones.
While captain Emma Lipman has extended her stay at Como Women, midfielder Rachel Cuschieri moved from Lazio to Sampdoria and registered the winning assist in last weekend’s Serie A opener in the 2-1 win against Sassuolo. Another player heading to Italy is Maya Lucia, who just recently has been announced as Genoa player, and is part of the senior team having been a key figure in the historic Under-19’s side that won promotion to League A earlier this year. Moreover, Maria Farrugia swapped Sunderland Ladies for Durham Women with whom she has already played two games in the Barclays Women’s Championship while Haley Bugeja made the move across the Atlantic as she is now part of Orlando Pride in the National Women’s Soccer League. Meanwhile, there is a minor change in the squad as Gillingham Women’s forward Ylenia Carabott has been replaced by Birkirkara’s Raina Giusti.
Giusti scored one of the Stripes’ goals which ensured them the first Maltese victory in a UEFA Women’s Champions League game after beating Glentoran of Northern Ireland 2-1. In the process, Giusti became the all-time Maltese top scorer for a local club in this competition with three goals in 14 appearances.
She will be joining fellow Birkirkara players in Janice Xuereb, Stephania Farrugia, Charlene Zammit, Ann-Marie Said and Alishia Sultana. “Obviously, a lot of players had not played since May before the pre-season started, ” Gatt explained. “All players have now started to play with their clubs and some of them, especially the foreign-based, have already played competitive games as well. At the same time, Birkirkara’s players had a good preparation as well having featured in the UEFA Women’s Championship registering a historic victory which made us proud. ” Malta farewell For coach Gatt, the Azerbaijan game will be significant as this will be his final home game in charge of the senior national team.
