Australia prepare for second game without injured captainMatildas seek improved overall performance against Nigeria
Australia insist they have the firepower to make a deep run at the Women’s World Cup with or without star striker Sam Kerr, who will miss at least the next match against Nigeria on Thursday with a calf injury.
Kerr did not train on Monday and the Matildas have said they will reassess her condition ahead of next week’s final group stage encounter against Canada. But in a hopeful sign for Matildas fans, Kerr posted photos to Instagram of her working out in the gym at the team’s base camp in Brisbane.
