Australia has breathed new life into their World Cup campaign with an incredibly dominant win on Monday night which set up a probable round of 16 clash with Denmark.
The Matildas live to fight another day. Climbing up off the canvas after four days of anxiety, scrutiny and another round of mind games over Sam Kerr’s calf, Australia pulled a sensational 4-0 win over Canada out of the fire to keep their World Cup campaign alive.
And where Gustavsson’s decisions last week were highly questionable, this time he got it all spot-on.He made only one change to the team that fell 3-2 to Nigeria, with Cortnee Vine making way for Fowler’s return from concussion. Kerr was named on the bench, but did not participate in any of the pre-match warm-ups, watching on in boots and a big puffer jacket.
Four minutes later, that same connection – Catley to Raso – nearly produced another goal, but Canada’s Kailen Sheridan dived to her left and repelled Raso’s effort, from a similar position, with a single outstretched hand.
