Just six months out from the 2023 Women's World Cup, the Matildas are putting their finishing touches on the squad, systems, and styles they expect to play come July 20 where they will face the Republic of Ireland, Canada, and Nigeria in the group stage.
Their first stop of this "dress rehearsal" couldn't have gone much better, thumping Czechia 4-0 at Central Coast Stadium in Gosford on Thursday night thanks to a brace from Hayley Raso and a goal apiece from Sam Kerr and record-breaking captain for the night, Clare Polkinghorne.
