In the 63rd minute of this semi-final between English and Australian, the Accor Stadium in Sydney exploded. Sam Kerr, captain of the Matildas, undisputed star of Australian rules football, scored the goal of his life to pick up the score against the Lionesses. It all starts with a race, from midfield. A fantastic ride to the edge of the area, where the attacker armed an unstoppable, clear, powerful strike, which the English goalkeeper could not stop.
It’s Kerr’s first goal of the World Cup, a priceless reward for the one who started the competition in the infirmary, after an injury just before the kick-off of Australia’s first match. She played her first minutes in the round of 16, against Denmark, before starting against France. The Chelsea striker was one of the most influential players in the match against Les Bleues, which was won on penalties. Before fully assuming his responsibilities in front of his public, won over to his cause, to seek a place in the final against Spain.
A few minutes later, Lauren Hemp restored the advantage to the English, propelling them into the final.
