00:00 A little bit more height on that, Renat!
00:03 Couldn't control the header and it's stabbed over the top by Lacroix.
00:08 That's an escape for the Matildas if she's onside, and she is.
00:12 Breaks kindly here for France, Le Somer takes on Alana Kennedy.
00:18 Usually Le Somer, slight deflection and Arnold equal to it.
00:22 But Le Somer fancied the challenge there against Alana Kennedy.
00:27 McKenzie Arnold up rather than away.
00:35 DalĂ helps it back in.
00:36 And McKenzie Arnold pours that to safety.
00:42 Here's Razo, good offer from Hayley Razo.
00:46 PĂ©rez-Magnan can't get hands on that, Fowler!
00:49 Brilliant defending, absolutely magnificent from Dale Maynard.
00:55 Prevents Mary Fowler putting the Matildas 1-0 up.
00:59 She celebrates it like a goal and why not?
01:02 It saved a certain goal for the Matildas.
01:04 That is world class defending.
01:08 Now, good steal on halfway, straight into the action is Sam Kerr.
01:12 Gonna look for the pass.
01:14 Razo, players arriving in all areas, but it's Hayley Razo!
01:19 Fine save by PĂ©rez-Magnan.
01:23 That was heading into the top corner.
01:28 Fowler!
01:30 PĂ©rez-Magnan blocks with her legs.
01:33 Just won't go in for Mary Fowler.
01:36 Low ball in, might be awkward here for the Matildas.
01:40 Down he shot, blocked, BĂ©chaud!
01:42 Brilliant save from McKenzie Arnold.
01:46 Arrowed in by the 19-year-old Vicky BĂ©chaud.
01:49 McKenzie Arnold at her best.
01:53 The tension palpable.
01:56 No problem for Sam Kerr.
02:02 And she's missed!
02:06 And I think there was a fingertip under the post from McKenzie Arnold.
02:11 It's a few small steps for McKenzie Arnold.
02:16 If she scores, they're into a semi-final.
02:19 Oh no!
02:22 And wonderful relief for Leblanc.
02:26 And hits the post.
02:27 And for the third time,
02:30 Australia are one successful penalty away from the last four.
02:36 Step up in the big moment and it is Courtney Vine for the Matildas.
02:40 Can she do it?
02:41 21-year-old Courtney Vine at her first World Cup.
02:49 Can write the Matildas into history.
02:54 Cue the party!
02:56 Wild scenes in Brisbane, Mianjin.
03:01 It's Australia who are through to a semi-final against either England or Colombia,
03:06 who kick off in just under half an hour's time.
