The Matildas will head for the upcoming 2018 Women's Asian Cup in Jordan full of confidence after putting five goals past Thailand in their farewell friendly at Perth's nib Stadium on Monday night.
The second half was much more quite for both side as Thailand looked for an opportunity to break down the central defence pairing of Clare Polkinghorne and Alanna Kennedy.
However, it didn't take long for Australia to find their fourth as De Vanna claimed her second of the night.

It did come as a surprise when Sam Kerr and Emily van Egmond were substituted for Ellie Carpenter and Laura Alleway.
The Matildas continued to dominate the game and were rewarded for their efforts with a fifth and final goal which came in weird circumstances as the cross into the box saw the ball come off Kennedy and onto Larissa Crummer.
Thailand had some great chances to find the back of the net but the final touch and perfect pass weren't coming easy.
It was a good win for the Matildas as they head to Jordan in two weeks time for the Asian Cup.
