Matildas secure third-straight victory after toppling wasteful Mexico
The Matildas delivered a mature performance in testing conditions against Mexico but key questions remain unanswered over fringe squad members three months out from Paris.
Star forward Caitlin Foord orchestrated a 2-0 friendly victory in San Antonio on Wednesday as Australia looked fitter, stronger and more lethal than their world No. 31 opponents.
Foord set up the Matildas’ opening goal against the run of play in the ninth minute before she struck with a booming finish early in the second half which appeared to crush Mexico’s resistance.
The 29-year-old wove her way in from the left hand side before faking a shot with an exaggerated swivel of the hips, which gave her the space to fire a pinpoint shot into the bottom right corner.
