After Australia’s 3-2 victory over Brazil in on Wednesday evening, Elise Kellond-Knight revealed just what inspired the Matildas to their first win at the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
Ante Milicic’s side trailed 2-0 inside 40 minutes, after Marta converted a dubious penalty and Cristiane headed home for her fourth goal in two games.
But Australia fought back as Caitlin Foord prodded home just before half time, with a strike from Chloe Logarzo and an own goal from Monica, with the aid of VAR, completing the comeback in the second half.
