00:00 It's very significant, but it's a joy, it's a pleasure to be here in Canberra at the government's
00:05 house, Parliament's house, to meet Prime Minister Albanese and to see that the heart of all
00:12 of them is beating for football or soccer, whatever you call it, it doesn't matter for
00:17 this World Cup, for the Matildas.
00:19 And it's fantastic and really what I want to say here is a big, big thank you to the
00:25 nation, to Australia, to New Zealand, who is co-hosting the World Cup as well.
00:29 We had a great discussion with Prime Minister Albanese earlier today and we will have to
00:35 cope of course with the big demands of girls and boys wanting to play football after this
00:42 World Cup.
00:43 I mean, this will become the number one sport in Australia as it is all over the world.
00:48 We are working towards that.
00:49 Every sport is great of course, but football is fantastic, the best sport.
