Mathew Ryan - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Allows three goals Ryan had three saves and allowed three goals in Sunday's 3-0 loss against Espanyol.

Impact Ryan was in for a rough start to the season Sunday, as the goalie would be beaten three times while making three saves. This comes after he only allowed one goal against Espanyol all of last season, not a good sign for the Levante defense to open the campaign. He will prepare to face Osasuna next on Monday, a decent chance to have a bounce-back match.

Back with club after World Cup Ryan has returned to training with Levante following his World Cup campaign with Australia, the club posted.

Impact Ryan returned from the World Cup with Australia, where he was not the starting goalkeeper and made only a brief appearance against Egypt before the penalty shootout defeat that ended the Socceroos' run. He now returns to Levante, where he is expected to remain first choice after signing for another season following an impressive campaign last year in which he helped the club survive relegation, keeping nine clean sheets and making 125 saves while conceding 56 goals across 36 appearances.

The goalkeeper has captained Australia and represented the country at four World Cups, including this summer's tournament. Ryan is expected to remain Levante's starting goalkeeper for the upcoming campaign.

Australia Switches Goalkeepers For Penalty Kicks vs. Egypt, But Still Falls Short

Back to international action for WC Ryan is expected to feature in goal for Australia during the 2026 World Cup, aiming to stand out for his experience and reflexes.

Impact Ryan remains Australia's clear No. 1 and one of the most experienced goalkeepers in international football heading into the World Cup. The veteran captain has spent well over a decade competing at a high level in Europe and is coming off a busy campaign with Levante, averaging 3.5 saves and 1.6 goals conceded per game in La Liga play. The Australian national team could spend stretches of matches defending against tough opposition, which provides Ryan with ample opportunities to record saves. His extensive tournament experience should also prove valuable and may be a differential factor for the Socceroos to advance beyond the group stage. Still, he's not guaranteed clean sheets, with most of his upside coming from his shot-stopping capacity.

Impact Ryan would make a decent four saves Wednesday, but was unable to keep the clean sheet, allowing a goal in the loss.

Concedes two in loss Ryan made zero saves and conceded two goals during Sunday's 2-0 loss against Valencia.

Impact Ryan got beaten twice during the second half and couldn't do much to prevent either goal allowed. What hurts the most from a fantasy standpoint is the fact that these were the only two shots he faced during the entire game and this was the third time over the last four games with the veteran goalkeeper having more goals allowed than saves, which doesn't make him the most appealing pick among his La Liga peers right now.
