Former Matilda's brutal verdict of Australia's World Cup campaign

The green and gold have been sent packing from France far earlier than many expected

Australia have been knocked out of the Women's World Cup after losing to Norway on penalties in their Round of 16 clash in Nice and a former player hasn't held back in her assessment of the team's performance.

The Matildas experienced a turbulent campaign, losing their opening match against Italy, and struggled to create meaningful chances against Norway.

Speaking after the match, former Matilda Alicia Ferguson didn't mince her words as she declared that the green and gold fell well short of expectations and simply ran out of ideas on the pitch.
