Australia vs England Battle for Final Ticket Live on GOtv 

FIFA Women’s World Cup co-host, Australia will challenge European Champions, England at the semi-finals of the ongoing tournament  this morning. The match will be broadcast live on GOtv at 11am.

The Matildas became the first Australian team to reach the semi-finals of a FIFA World Cup for either men or women when they defeated France on penalties in the quarter-finals. They are keen to take it a step further against the Lionesses. The game will be broadcast live on GOtv SuperSelect 1 this morning. 

The Aussies will be banking on their home crowd to cheer them to another giant killing victory when they take on England, as they look to become the second team since the United States in 1999 to win the prestigious tournament on home turf. 

However, English defender Ella Toone believes the Lionesses have the mentality needed to beat the Matildas inspite of their crowd advantage. England came from behind to defeat Colombia 2-1 in the quarter-finals and they also defeated Nigeria on penalties in the Round of 16 with ten players after Lauren James was sent off. 

“There’s a belief in the squad that we can go out there and beat anybody we come up against. We don’t fear opponents. We know everyone wants to beat us, but we have a winning mentality. We’ve had a lot of success and we want to keep doing that,” She told FIFA.com.

Meanwhile, the winner of this clash will face Spain in the final set to be played on Sunday after La Roja defeated Sweden 2-1 on Tuesday morning to advance to their first ever FIFA Women World Cup final.
