They come into this game on the back of a closely contested snatch and grab 1-0 defeat at the hands of ladder leaders Blacktown City. Paul Dee has had a significant impact on the club since taking over as head coach earlier this season but will need to work his magic to ensure the side doesn’t slump into another run of defeats. Left-back Mathieu Cordier has found form in recent weeks and was one of the best on ground in a losing side during last week’s match. Injury to recruit Corey Gameiro limits Dee’s options in attack, leaving Blake Powell, Corey Biczo, Sean Symons and Franco Parisi to carry the load against a stout Rangers defence.

NPLNSW.COM.AU 29 THE ANNUAL VIAREGGIO COPPA CARNEVALE WORLD YOUTH TOURNAMENT
APIA has been a participant in this prestigious World Class Tournament for nearly two decades rubbing shoulders with the likes of the mighty Juventus, A C Milan (the two most successful Clubs in this Tournament with nine titles each), as well as Manchester United and Inter Milan, to name a few. The Viareggio Tournament, officially named the Viareggio Cup World Football Tournament Coppa Carnevale, is a youth association football tournament held annually in Viareggio, Italy and its surrounding areas. Established in 1949, the Torneo di Viareggio is considered one of the most important youth football tournaments in the world. It coincides with the Carnival of Viareggio, starting on the third Monday of Carneval. The tournament runs for a fortnight, and finishes on the last Monday of the Carnival. For this reason, it is also known as the Coppa Carnevale (Carnival Cup). The most successful Clubs of the Coppa Carnevale:
