Sam Kerr, Australia striker and star after the win over Denmark and the Women’s World Cup quarter-final: “It’s a huge relief to be back. I feel good. I thought I was a little rusty, but no, I feel great. I will sleep better tonight than I have for the last three weeks. (About the vibe) I think we live it well, I think the girls like it. The Australian public has been extraordinary. We felt the love just walking down the street, it’s a real effervescence.”
Australia striker Caitlin Foord on Sam Kerr’s return: “It’s a huge boost for us. For the other teams, it’s scarier that she’s back on our team and playing again.”
