Around SBN: In Crunch Time, Spurs Don't Change Their Game

Jake Gleeson and Craig Henderson will get another chance to start their All Whites careers after being selected in a 23-man squad for internationals against Mexico and Australia in June.....

Gleeson, 20, was picked as back up to Glen Moss for this year’s first friendly against China but was released to play for Portland Timbers in the MLS. He made his Major League debut while the national team was away and has added another three appearances since.

From New Zealand Football website. Congrats to Gleeson for getting the call up again! Beat El Tri!

He deserves it.

Mike Rice: "Camby nearly rejected that with his Armpit!"

Mike Barrett: "Now that would be a fragrant foul."

Good for him!

I hope he’s collecting Frequent Flier miles….
