Shocking timing for Kerr... hopefully we can perform well without her & she returns soon.

Looking forward to heading along to tonight's game - $20 tickets for the 'cheap seats' is sensational value for a World Cup.

It's been great to see some very solid crowds for most of the matches - especially in Australia and Auckland.

A batch of tickets have just been released for the China v Haiti game Friday for anyone interested.

Sellout crowd expected tonight. A win and our girls through to the next round.

The Matildas are so overrated. Listless without Kerr.

First time I've watched womens soccer, thought it would be a better standard.

Without being 'critical' of the game of soccer, it seems like a sport that should 'suit' women, not overly physical, not much body contact. More reliant on skills and speed rather than strength and size.

Whereas Aussie rules, cricket, basketball etc how men play the game vs home women play the game is obviously different due to size and strength. I thought soccer would be a closer between the two sexes.

I can see how a under 15 boys side could knock off a national womens team.
