AFC Wimbledon defender makes League Two Team of the Week

Jack Currie has been named in the League Two Team of the Week after AFC Wimbledon won 3-1 at Walsall on Saturday.

The 21-year-old scored Wimbledon’s second goal of the afternoon in the 61st minute when Ali Al-Hamadi collected the ball inside the penalty area and teed the left-back up on the edge of the box.

Currie took one touch before firing an effort – which took a deflection en route to goal – beyond Walsall keeper Owen Evans.

It was only Currie’s second start of the season in the league after picking up a quad injury during pre-season.

The former Eastbourne Borough loanee also won four aerial battles, attempted five challenges and completed two interceptions.

Goals from Connor Evans and Al-Hamadi wrapped up the three points for the Dons and moved them up to eighth in the League Two table.
