Bahrain manager Peter Taylor says their 10-0 win over Indonesia was down to the opposition

Bahrain manager Peter Taylor says their 10-0 win over Indonesia was down to the opposition’s inexperience. We report on Piermario Morosini’s funeral and rising crowds in the A-League.

The Bahrain manager, Peter Taylor, tells us their 10-0 World Cup qualifying win over Indonesia wasn’t fixed, and they should have won by more! He blames the result on the inexperience of the Indonesians, most of whom had fewer than ten caps.

We’re in Bergamo for the funeral of Piermario Morosini and remember his life with his coach when he played for the Atalanta youth team.

Plus rising crowds in the A-League and football in the ambitiousKiribati.
