Women's World Cup hosts Australia suffer defeat vs Scotland in showcase friendly at AFC Wimbledon

League Two side AFC Wimbledon have today played host to a huge women's international match between Women's World Cup hosts Australia and Scotland in an international friendly.

The clash saw several Women's Super League heavyweights battle against each other, with Hayley Raso of Manchester City start for the Matildas while Villa's Kirsty Hanson featured for Scotland - but there was no sign of Chelsea's Sam Kerr making her way onto the pitch.

It was a huge chance for women's football fans in and around Wimbledon and the capital to see two international sides battle it out at The Cherry Red Records Stadium - especially seeing the hosts of the upcoming Women's World Cup in action, and it was Scotland who edged out the Aussies with a well fought 1-0 win.
