For most young footballers, making an A-League debut is a moment years in the making. For Harry Crawford, it happened in the span of just a few hours. After playing a full match for Adelaide United’s NPL side in the afternoon in a friendly, an unexpected call-up saw him suit up for the senior squad under the bright lights that very night. It was a whirlwind experience—one that he’ll never forget. Watch as Harry reflects on his unforgettable day, the emotions of stepping onto the pitch, and what’s next for his football journey.
