Matildas friendlies in June 2026

[libelous]

Hopefully we bang in a few goals before halftime to give Montemurro courage to make a few changes in the second half and I don’t mean bringing on EVE for her thousandth cap.

Paramount.

The Matildas' second and final friendly against Mexico is a Paramount+ exclusive broadcast and won't be on free to air unfortunately.

That’s exactly why. They only put one game on FTA unfortunately, unless it’s a tournament.

Fun fact: the last time the Matildas lost a match in which Clare Wheeler started was a 5–0 loss to Canada on 2 December 2023.

Not much ‘fun’ for Clare though I doubt the loss was down to her.

It wasn’t. In fact she didn’t even play bad. It was an extremely rotated squad, a rarity under Tony Gustavsson, against Canada’s first team. He likely used it as an excuse to not rotate or pick some of them for the World Cup.

I still find it utterly ridiculous that she didn’t play a single minute at the World Cup. She’s a great player and is the textbook definition of an underrated player. If she played for a Big Four club everyone would talk about her.

LANI!!!!!!

The cele scared my cat lol.

Why do we only follow players from the ‘ big’ clubs. I guess it’s football’s equivalent of the ‘cultural cringe’ which we have always been famous for.

Macca didn’t even try there.

Diana Ordonez scores in the 26th minute for Mexico to level the scores at 1-1.

That didn’t last long.
