Coach Tony Popovic has faith Western Sydney can regroup quickly from Saturdays A-League Sydney derby humbling in time for next weekends grand-final rematch with Adelaide.The Wanderers went down 4-0 in front of more than 61,000 fans at ANZ Stadium, after being picked apart by Sydney FC.It leaves Popovics side winless in eight games against their cross-city rivals, a hoodoo that will extend to more than three years before they meet again in January.The club also remains without a round-one victory in its fifth season.Despite that unenviable round one record, the notoriously slow-starting Wanderers have made three grand finals in the last four seasons.They wont get freaked out by that result Popovic said.Thats certainly not something we have to worry about at all.Id be worried if theyre not disappointed - Im disappointed.But that wont be an issue.Although Popovic struggled to see positives from such an emphatic defeat, he agreed with Sydney coach Graham Arnold that the scoreline wasnt a true reflection of the contest.There were moments when the Wanderers could have turned around their fortunes, but for their own profligacy in front of goal and some brilliant shot-stopping from Danny Vukovic.Kerem Bulut was twice easily thwarted by the Sydney gloveman, who then charged from his line to deny Mitch Nichols a certain goal that would have got them back in the game.Popovic said Sydney simply played the big moments better.The first two goals were very soft on our behalf, he said.But then at 2-0 we created numerous opportunities to go 2-1 and really be right back in the game.But we didnt take them.Then we got a send off and they scored direct. We got punished for everything.Nimble Japanese winger Jumpei Kusukami was a rare positive for the hosts and one that could yield fruits throughout the season, while Argentine marquee Nicolas Martinez impressed in a 20-minute cameo off the bench.Aritz Borda will be suspended for next Fridays away encounter with reigning champions Adelaide after being red-carded for bringing down Alex Brosque in the last 10 minutes.Centre-back Robert Cornthwaite was incredibly lucky not to join him for his reckless two-footed challenge that took down Bobo and triggered a heated first-half brawl.Im always going to try to win my challenges, whether its a derby or a normal game, Cornthwaite said.If the ball is there to be won Im going to try and win the ball.You want to be aggressive and set the tone, but I never go in to injure anyone.I did get the ball, and maybe it was a bit reckless, but the referee deemed it a yellow card.USA Soccer Jerseys 2019 .

A league source told ESPN that Arison emerged from the meeting without a resolution or an agreement in place. Arison later posted a photo from a cruise ship to his social media accounts and indicated he was headed to Europe.It was Arison, the Carnival Cruise Line magnate, who stepped in during acrimonious negotiations between Wade and team president Pat Riley to broker the one-year, $20 million deal Wade signed last summer.The Nuggets have offered Wade a two-year deal worth north of $50 million, league sources told ESPN.Wade also met with Bucks owner Marc Lasry. Sources say Wade is said to be a big fan of Bucks swingman Khris Middleton after they worked out together last summer.This isnt the first time Wade, a Chicago native, and the Bulls have been linked in free-agency speculation. In the summer of 2010, some within the Bulls organizatioon believed that both Wade and fellow free agent Chris Bosh were going to sign to play in Chicago after taking a visit to the city and talking with some Bulls players.ddddddddddddUltimately, Wade and Bosh decided to team with LeBron James and form a super team in Miami that would go on to win two NBA championships.Having lost out on Wade once before in free agency, some within the Bulls organization are concerned that Wade could be using Chicago as free-agency leverage to bring Miamis offer up, sources told ESPN. But the chatter among league sources at the Orlando Summer League remains that Wade will once again sign in Miami when all is said and done.After dealing Derrick Rose to the New York Knicks last week, Bulls GM Gar Forman acknowledged that Chicagos window for championship contention had closed and that his team needed to get younger and more athletic.The Bulls changed course by signing veteran point guard Rajon Rondo on Sunday and would significantly veer away from that message by adding Wade. But without Rose as a box office draw, the Bulls could decide to roll the dice with Wade, who like star guard Jimmy Butler is a Marquette?alum, and hope for the best as they try to figure out how they want to rebuild the roster.
