Jesse Randall: Auckland FC winger and All White on the Derby win and call up for the national side
Published 4 months, 4 weeks ago
Description
It was a whirlwind weekend for Jesse Randall.
On the Saturday the Auckland FC winger was the star of the Kiwi derby, tormenting the Wellington Phoenix with his pace, as he made one goal for Sam Cosgrove then scored the second himself, which was decisive in the 2-1 win.
Then, on Sunday morning, he got a phone call from national coach Darren Bazeley, telling him to get ready for a flight to Houston the following day, as a late call-up for the All Whites.
Randall told Piney it came as a bit of a surprise, but a nice one.
“I’m always ready to pick up the phone if it’s being rung by [Bazeley].”
