And here is the match report from Samantha Lewis.
Goodnight!
But that’s just about all from me this evening, on a night in which the Matildas needed a win over South Korea to top Group A but, instead, were forced to settle for a 3-3 draw that saw them finish second in the group.
Their path to the final will now run through Perth, where they’ll face either North Korea or China in a quarterfinal at Perth Oval and then, in all likelihood, face the other one at Perth Stadium if they progress through that.
The South Koreans, meanwhile, will face one of the third-placed finishers in Sydney and then, should they go through there as expected, face off with Japan in a huge semi-final.
But that’s all for another time. We’ll have match reports and analysis on deck soon but, for now, thanks and success.
