Provided constant width and looked to get forward at every opportunity while defending solidly.<\/p>\n Alanna Kennedy (6.5):<\/strong> Defended well in the centre of Australia's defence and used her experience to help guide the team from the back.<\/p>\n Clare Hunt (7):<\/strong> Immense again as she physically dominated in the heart of Australia's defence while being neat in possession.<\/p>\n Ellie Carpenter (6):<\/strong> Looked to get forward when she could and was sound in defence after a nervous start.<\/p>\n Emily van Egmond (6.5):<\/strong> An unselfish role in Australia's midfield and looked to help press high when Canada were in possession.<\/p>\n Hayley Raso (8):<\/strong> Two goals and constantly pushed the Canadian defence back with her threatening runs forward, while helping back in defence when needed.<\/p>\n Kyra Cooney-Cross (7):<\/strong> Had her best game of the tournament where her control in midfield defied her young age and was unlucky not to score from distance in the second half.<\/p>\n Katrina Gorry (6):<\/strong> Worked hard as always but was loose in possession at times. Her effort encapsulated an Australia performance which was full of determination and effort.<\/p>\n Caitlin Foord (7.5):<\/strong> Worked tirelessly up front and allowed space for other players as she constantly made unselfish runs out wide , set up the third goal after a clever run and cut back.<\/p>\n Mary Fowler (7):<\/strong> Struggled to impose herself on the game in the first half. Showed her class in the second half as the game stretched and was able to latch onto a Foord cutback as she scored the third goal.<\/p>\n SUBSTITUTES<\/strong><\/p>\n Cortnee Vine on 74th min. (5):<\/strong> Made some good forward movements and looked to involve herself with her limited minutes.<\/p>\n Clare Polkinghorne on 83rd min.
