Australia captain may be deployed as impact substitute again‘Consistency and chemistry is key,’ says coach Tony GustavssonHow to watch Matildas vs England; every Matildas story; Golden Boot tracker
Matildas coach Tony Gustavasson has hinted on the eve of Australia’s historic World Cup semi-final clash that star striker Sam Kerr will again be used off the bench against England in Sydney.
Kerr returned from a calf injury as a late substitute in the last 16, before playing more than 60 minutes as the Matildas’ quarter-final against France went to penalties. With just four days between the matches, and Australia’s attacking quartet of Caitlin Foord, Mary Fowler, Emily van Egmond and Hayley Raso combining well together, Kerr’s addition to the starting line-up would cause complications for the manager.
