WATCH: Mary Fowler nets an absolute screamer as Man City thrash Bristol
The Matilda scored the first two of her team's goals in the 4-0 win.
After a rollercoaster of a group stage, the Matildas have progressed to the knockout stage of the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup following a Sam Kerr-led demolition of Jamaica.
Four goals from the marquee woman saw the Aussies take down the Caribbean country 4-1 and set up a date with Norway on Sunday morning.
But it was far from sunshine and roses in the rest of Australia’s group stage. Horrid defending and blunders aplenty had the critics out in force after a shock 2-1 loss to Italy in their first match.
While the Matildas recovered to knock off Brazil in their next game, exuberant post-match comments from Kerr drew the ire of some analysts.
So where are our girls really at?
Roar football expert Mike Tuckerman jumped on the Game of Codes podcast to discuss the group stage and preview what the knockout stage might have in store for the Matildas.
