Australia top Group B ahead of Nigeria, who drew 0-0 with Ireland.
CO-HOSTS AUSTRALIA RESCUED their Women’s World Cup hopes with a 4-0 thumping of Canada to sweep into the last 16 at the expense of the Olympic champions on Monday.
Australia top Group B ahead of Nigeria, who drew 0-0 with Ireland, and set them up for a clash against the second-placed team in Group D — likely Denmark or China — in the next round. “The way the players performed tonight, all the talk about Sam , they just went out and played their game, stayed true to who they are.”
A shellshocked Canada made four changes at half-time, but the comeback never materialised and Mary Fowler bagged Australia’s third from a counter-attack before Catley sealed victory with an injury-time penalty.
