A young fan has been brought to tears after receiving a Sam Kerr Matildas jersey for her birthday.
Willow, who was celebrating her ninth birthday, was surprised with a Kerr jersey.
The video posted by Angelique Bennett showed Willow opening her gift, which was shared with Sam Kerr and was accompanied with the following words.
"What a wonderful inspiration you are Sam Kerr..both on and off the pitch. This is the reaction you received in our house this morning for a little girls 9 year old birthday! Priceless."

It was a moving video and promoted Kerr to share the video on Facebook but not before replying to the original video offering to sign the jersey if the chance arises.
"Wow amazing. Happy birthday."
"Hopefully I can meet you and sign it one day soon."
A bonus surprise for the youngest was the pants that came along with the shirt which she exclaimed: "I'm going to be a Matilda" before putting the full kit on to show.
