It has been a tense start to the Matildas’ Women’s World Cup quarter-final against France, with neither side able to find the back of the net.
The winner will earn a semi-final berth against either England or Colombia, who play later on Saturday, in Sydney next Wednesday. Eight players: Caitlin Foord, Ellie Carpenter, Clare Hunt, Alanna Kennedy, Katrina Gorry, Kyra Cooney-Cross, Steph Catley and Mackenzie Arnold have played 300 or more minutes.The lack of substitutes, though Sam Kerr should ramp up her minutes on Saturday, is in stark contrast to Gustavsson’s well-worn rhetoric that to succeed in the World Cup would take “23 in 23”.But he’s adamant even if Saturday’s match goes to extra time, his players can deliver.
“The funny thing with this team is every time we have shortened time between two games, they amp up the high speed game off there.“So the most intense game they have played so far in terms of sprints and high speed metres was the game where they had less recovery time. So they bounce back extremely well.
