Australia's Stingers have defied all the odds to dethrone three-time defending women's water polo champions USA in a dramatic penalty shoot out and surge into the Olympic gold-medal match in Paris.
Captain Zoe Arancini's side turned the tables on the world champs who'd outplayed them in a three-match series in April, scoring an historic, nail-biting 14-13 triumph on Thursday at La Defense Arena.
The famous win makes them the first Australian women's side to reach the final since the class of 2000 won the inaugural water polo event in Sydney - and they're guaranteed their first medal since winning bronze in 2012.
