The Australians, co-hosts of the World Cup deprived of their injured star Sam Kerr, were surprised by the Nigerians (3-2), who are taking a big step towards the knockout stages.
In this Group B match in Brisbane, Australia opened the scoring (45 1) thanks to Foord, before Nigeria came back to score just before half-time (45 6). Then thanks to Ohale (65th) and Barça striker Oshoala, the Nigerians surprised the “Matildas”, despite a stoppage time goal from Alanna Kennedy (90 10).
