Happy New Year and ‘Lang May Yer Lum Reek’, as we say in Scotland. We hope you’ve all had an enjoyable festive period and we want to wish you a happy and healthy 2019. Thanks for all your support of AFTN in 2018. We’ve a lot of new and exciting things planned for the coming year, so stay tuned!
And what better way to kick of the new year than with the latest episode of the AFTN Soccer Show?!
We sit down for a lengthy chat with former Canadian Women’s national team player, and new Vancouver Whitecaps Super REX Elite Girls head coach Rhian Wilkinson to talk about her new role, the recent U17 World Cup in Uruguay, Canada’s chances at this summer’s Women’s World Cup in France, the Ballon d’Or twerking controversy, and more.
Plus we hear from FC Cincinnati head coach Alan Koch after last month’s expansion draft, as he prepares for his side’s first season in MLS, and we chat with Colorado Rapids Scottish winger Sam Nicholson about life in MLS so far, and what tempted him to leave the Scottish Premier League for the US at such an early stage of his career.
