Emily van Egmond - 8

Sam Kerr wouldn’t have been able to get off the mark without her set-pieces. Constantly  delivered when needed and looked sturdy in midfield.

Tameka Butt - 8

The Brisbane Roar star was influential throughout the game, she received plenty of the ball and kicked on despite copping a knock in the first half. Her goal might have been a bit fortuitous but the deflected strike had the goalkeeper all over the place.

Hayley Raso - 9

The Portland Thorns and Roar utility showed just how versatile she was dominating the right-back position, Xu Yanlu had little luck getting forward. She also helped create opportunities and looked exhausted at the end of the match after a hard day at the office.

Katrina Gorry - 6.5

Mini did not get too many touches on the ball and was not a standout player despite playing the majority of the game.

Lisa De Vanna - 9

Looked extremely lively early in the game, combined well with Sam Kerr throughout the game. She got into dangerous areas and once again had the physicality the Matildas needed against their opponents. Unlucky not to get a goal and was taken off with four minutes to go.
