Wow, so that knocks off the 8.8million for Cathy Freeman’s gold. Amazing numbers.
Thanks Tillies.

She had a couple of chances, but at 30 she and a few others know they may not be around for the next WC.

Who can relate?

C'mon Aussies!! ⚽🙏

Very soft penalty against the Matildas if u ask me.

 

[Tucker]

Poor sportsmanship from the crowd booing a goal like that.
Physical game this one. A lot more interesting than the past two.

Nah that's a penalty every day of the week.

Nah that's a penalty every day of the week.

I thought 50-50 anyway glad to see our girls getting involved a bit more physically instead of standing back and watching.
Polkinghorne experienced but weak, Kennedy for her at half time. Some extra strike power up front, Kerr too easy to read at present.
May as well lose by 3 but need to attack, not counter attack all the time. 3 up front !!!!

Kennedy is out with concussion.

I thought she was such a huge loss during the England game.

Wasn’t confident at all that we’d win when she was ruled out.

Polkinghorne not up to this level any more.

I'm not a great watcher of soccer, but Sam Kerr reminds me a bit of latrell Mitchell....is the media's pet but does stuff all

Playing for 3rd?

🤣

Didn’t know about Kennedy.
I think we all saw over the last 2 games the coolness and professionalism of the Northern Hemisphere game.
The ladies gave it everything but there was a significant class difference but it is all part of the learning curve.
Well done to the entire squad and the coaching staff but look forward to following the ladies moving forward and looking for change and improvement.

 

[coivtny]

Well and truly outplayed tonight.

🤣

Happens in many team sports at the Olympics ....hockey .....basketball .....soccer etc

Also could become important for seedings for next World Cup ....the top 8 lead the pools .....you could get an easier group depending on seedings/ draw

And Football Australia will supposedly build on the success of the Matildas to make them Australia's favourite team....

Yeah??? Really???

They'll have ZERO exposure again for the next 4 years - aside from individuals like Kerr (and hopefully Fowler's ascent to becoming an undeniable world class superstar)!

These corporate suckholes have no clue!! * See Rugby Australia....

Haha Chanel 7 put the Matilda’s game on 7mate in Victoria and showed Border Security on the main Chanel.
Don’t blame them really…that Border Security is pretty entertaining.

"Boarder security" - is that where you put on a lock on your fridge to stop a tenant from taking your shit?

Lol I actually wrote bored-er but the tablet said that’s dumb and changed it.
