Yamashita goalkeeping

Yamashita holy moly she is too too too good #JPNvAUS

That’s excellent keeping from Yamashita. Took advantage of the heavy touch to take Kerr further wide.

13' WHAT A SAVE! Yamashita makes two stunning stops to deny Kerr and De Vanna. Brilliant from @TheMatildas in attack. #GoMatildas #JPNvAUS #WAC2018

Absolutely not the result I wanted, but that match was worthy of a trophy play-off. Player of the match surely has to be Japan’s goalie Yamashita. #GoMatildas #JPNvAUS #WAC2018 #WAC2018Final

​Having Polkinghorne back

I'm so nervous I can barely tweet except to say that having Polkinghorne back is like a sweet cuppa tea and slice of salty buttery vegemite toast when you're hung over: looks simple but does the job perfectly. #JPNvAUS

Clare Polkinghorne’s resurgence continues to be delightful. Been so good and so calm in that right centre back position. #JPNvAUS #WAC2018

​Yokoyama goal

Tadanari Lee, Kumi Yokoyama. Late Japan winners causing Australian heartbreak since 2011. #JPNvAUS

​

shades of Tanadari Lee about that Kumi Yokoyama goal. defensive mistake punished by an absolute banger to win it. #JPNvAUS #WAC2018
