The Matildas’ round of 16 opponents Denmark says they are ready to take on the Women’s World Cup co-hosts, despite Australian home crowd advantage and the potential return of Sam Kerr.
The Danes booked their place in the next round of the tournament with a win over Haiti on Tuesday. They will face the Matildas at Stadium Australia on Monday. It will be Denmark’s first appearance beyond the group stage of the World Cup since 1995.
