Matildas Take In FIFA Women's World Cup Semi-Final Loss Against England's Lionesses | 10 News First

Over 75,000 fans packed Stadium Australia to watch the CommBank Matildas' gallant effort in the FIFA Women's World Cup semi-final, where England's Lionesses claimed victory, 3 goals to 1.

[@ellaharvey7597]

Well done Matilda's. Congratulations Lionesses. Love the girl's in the Aussie team , and especially how they sung our national anthem. Such pride , and respect for our great country. You all made Australia great again. Thank you. NB . No disrespect , but the greatest sporting achievement I believe was the America's cup , win against the Yanks , after they held it for over 100 years.

Australia were totally owned by England. Especially in the 1st half, England had 80% possession of the ball. I watched it on the BBC & the commentary was so different to how the Australian media had the game. In the UK it was seen as a pretty & easy comfortable win against a fairly flat opposition, in Australia it was somehow positioned as a close game.

I sincerely hope that the Mataldas can look back at their achievements during this tournament and how they helped to grow the game and gain a whole new legion of fans. They should be so proud of what they accomplished. It is devastating that they didn't come out on top, but going down in the semi final is further than any Australian team has come before. Keep your head up and bring home the bronze on Saturday. Let's get behind our team and show them how proud we are of our Matildas! :)

@yeshuaknoyanot8474 exactly... basically most of the girls who won us the euros last year. But it proves just how many great players we have at the moment. Scary really. How the aussies could blame this on their injuries is a joke, and I've also heard that their media over there seem to think it was a close match lol. England could and probably should have had another 3 or 4 sitters. In every aspect of the game the English girls were so much better. And if they had needed to i'm sure they had a few more gears to up as well. At least they play to a plan and have a basic structure. If they lose to Spain it will be a freak result, like a 1 in 10 type thing, but imo England have been hands down the best side at this tournament. Let's hope they maintain that for one more game. Personally I think the Spanish will be terrified and will be mostly just trying to contain England.
