호주법률인사이트: '보증금 못 돌려받았어요'… 호주 쉐어하우스 분쟁, 어떻게 대응할까?
Dante Sealy opened the scoring in the 40th minute for Montreal (4-15-7), which has only won once at home in Major League Soccer action.
Atlanta (4-11-10) controlled the opening 15 minutes of the match and enjoyed several stints of possession deep in the attacking third. Newly arrived Montreal goalkeeper Thomas Gillier had his hands full early, making a series of key saves amid the Atlanta pressure.
After 20 minutes, Montreal was able to grow into the game and generate attacking threats of its own, most notably from set pieces. Two separate corner kicks yielded a wide-open header from Luca Petrasso that missed the target and a dangerous shot from Sealy, who hit the woodwork.
With five minutes left in the first half, Montreal found the breakthrough and opened the scoring with an incisive sequence of passes. After finding space behind the Atlanta defence, Caden Clark found himself in a two-on-one situation and slid the ball across to Sealy, who made no mistake.
The second half featured a much more balanced game as Montreal and Atlanta traded possession and half-chances without being able to provide the finishing touch. As the game wound down, Atlanta pushed forward in search of an equalizer and would eventually break the Montreal block just three minutes before the clock ran out.
A corner from Saba Lobjanidze caused chaos in the Montreal penalty area and led to Miranchuk nodding the ball home from just a few inches out. Atlanta nearly left with a dramatic 90th minute winner, but Miguel Almiron's curling shot smashed against the crossbar.

Mount Gambier's Bae Versace signs soccer contract in Montenegro
A regional South Australian soccer player has made the rare leap onto the European stage, signing a professional contract at the age of 18. Mount Gambier midfielder Bae Versace has signed with FK Budućnost Podgorica in the capital of Montenegro, after several years in Adelaide United's system. The European club's senior team has won six Montenegrin First League championships, with its youth side taking part in the UEFA Youth League alongside the continent's best teams including Barcelona, Liverpool and Real Madrid. Versace said heading over to Europe had been more of a dream than a goal for him. "I was just focused on playing at Adelaide United and trying to make my debut there," he said. Versace said he was settling into life in the Balkans. "Food and language are definitely the main two I'm getting used to," he said. "I came here and had people greeting me out the front of the club and had meetings with the club. And the boys have all been very good to me." Versace played a season as a junior at International Soccer Club in Mount Gambier before moving to MetroStars in Adelaide and being selected in United's junior teams. Melbourne-based coach Neb Stojkovic worked with Versace from a young age and helped him secure trials in Europe. "For them, football is a way of living … so they do it with a purpose and everyone is fighting for that next level, and that contract, in the seniors," he said. "For Bae it's a great opportunity to measure himself." Nick Morony was one of Versace's coaches when he played for Inter's under-12s at just eight years old. "He lived and breathed everything soccer," he said. Versace is thought to be the second Mount Gambier-born player to crack the European game after ex-Socceroo Josip Skoko, who started playing in the town before moving to Geelong at the age of nine. Versace said his young career showed country athletes had paths to become professionals. Mr Stojkovic said federations and coaches should work together to improve talent identification for regional players. "We should go out and dig for them, they should not be short of opportunities," he said. Football SA Limestone Coast regional development officer Nathan Koopman said federations were working to improve the pathways. "If we find a player that's of a level to go higher we know we can have them [initiating] conversations and building relationships with coaches in the city," he said. "When they do make that call to relocate they can then do it with a bit of confidence. "Of course it's very exciting to look at the best players in the world and their stories as inspiration, but I think it's just as valuable — if not more so — to be able to speak to someone who came from your town, that they can see this is possible."

Ange Postecoglou's lavish new life after sacking as former Tottenham boss spends $8m payout in style
Ange Postecoglou has turned lemons into lemonade following his brutal Tottenham sacking, living the high life in Europe, all funded by his $8m payout. The 59-year-old was unceremoniously dumped in June despite delivering Tottenham its first trophy in 17 years last month with a 1-0 win over Manchester United in the Europa League final in Bilbao. But with two years still left on his Spurs contract, the Premier League giant was forced to fork out $8 million to the Aussie as part of a severance package. And with that money, the Aussie is living lavishly while he waits for another club to inevitably come calling. Postecoglou – who also received a $4.2million bonus for winning the Europa League – has been strongly linked to a move to the MLS to manage Los Angeles FC and is also rumoured to be of interest to Al-Ahli, who won the AFC Champions League in May and play in the Saudi Pro League. However, as of now, he is out of work and safe to say he is making the most of it. A recent video emerged of Postecoglou showing the Aussie relaxing and being hand-fed steak by celebrity chef Stefanos Saratsis, better known as Salt Bae, at the exclusive eatery Sta Kala Kathoumena on the Greek isle of Paros. You can watch the video in the player above In the video, uploaded to TikTok by the celebrity chef, the football manager can be seen with a huge steak laid on the table before him. Saratsis dramatically slices the steak into ribbons before spearing a chunk onto his knife, seasoning it, and feeding it to the manager with the knife's tip. The Aussie is clearly not only enjoying himself in the clip but in the two months following his Tottenham exit. But Socceroos legend Robbie Slater believes he won't be living the lavish lifestyle for too much longer, tipping him to be sucked back into the managerial grind very soon. 'He put himself in that top echelon by being at a big club and winning a big trophy,' Slater told Code Sports. '(But) the way he plays football, I don't think a lower club in the Premier League will look at him and go 'we can take that risk.' 'He might get that opportunity in Europe, maybe Spain or France. He's gonna get a job; he will be in demand. 'He won't have a job to start next season, but as we know in football, it won't take long.' But until then, the Aussie appears to be happy with his change of pace, enjoying his money and time before the inevitable next challenge presents itself.

Alexei Popyrin falls agonisingly short in gruelling Cincinnati Open battle with Andrey Rublev
After three-and-a-half hours in sweltering Ohio heat, Alexei Popyrin just ran out of gas in an epic Cincinnati Open third-round tie with ninth seed Andrey Rublev. Popyrin lost 7–6 (7/5), 6–7 (5/7), 5–7 after a seesaw encounter that could easily have gone the other way. The Australian, himself ranked 19, will have the consolation of a very good workout ahead of the US Open, and may appreciate some rest after such a draining encounter. However, his chances of a top 16 ranking and better seeding slot in New York appear to be gone. When Rublev's passing shot beat him to seal victory with the Russian's first match point, Popyrin looked very weary, then smiled ruefully as he dragged himself to the net to give his opponent a hug. The pair had slugged it out for three tight sets, interrupted in the last by a lengthy rain break. First up on Court 3, in front of a decent crowd mainly supporting Rublev, Popyrin's opening serve was broken from 40–0 up, but he broke back immediately, helped by a brace of double-faults by the Russian. The first set thereafter went with serve to the tiebreak. After four mini-breaks, Popyrin served an ace at 5–5 then Rublev, facing set point, double-faulted. The second set went with serve to the tiebreak, albeit Popyrin had to save three break points while forcing none. After double-faulting at 4–5 in the breaker he broke for 5–5, only for Rublev to sweep the next two points and the tiebreak. The pair had been playing for more than 2 hours at this stage, in 32-degree heat. There followed an epic 28–point service game in which Popyrin forced but failed to take four break points. The match had begun in fierce sunshine shortly after 11:00am, local time, but for some time humidity had been rising and clouds building. Suddenly, with the third set poised at 2–1 to Rublev, and 30–30 on Popyrin's serve, a cloudburst flooded the court and sent players and spectators rushing for cover. Popyrin immediately went a break point down when they resumed just under an hour later, but saved it before serving out with two aces. The match then went with serve until, at 30–30 and 5–6 down, the Australian had to step away from his serve due to a ringing mobile phone. It may have made no difference but his subsequent serves were not quite there and Rublev pounced. The Russian now meets Argentina's Francisco Comensana, who beat Reilly Opelka 6–7 (4/7), 6–4, 7–5.
