Kerr heeds lessons in 'wake-up call' after Matildas humbled by Dutch

Yet, if coach Ante Milicic was looking for excuses, he had a few. Crucial midfielder Elise Kellond-Knight was out with a calf issue, and in her place Milicic gave minutes to attack-minded players Chloe Logarzo and Tameka Yallop rather than reinforcing his midfield. Fullback Steph Catley, who struggled, was playing just her second match in three months after injuries.


Other Matildas may still have been carrying weary legs from their intensive 10-day training campaign in Turkey, which wrapped up just prior to the Dutch rout.


Kerr said her side would be better for the run. “I just think in critical moments the situation got the better of us. I don’t think we got outplayed completely,” Kerr said. “It was a really big learning curve for us. That’s what the crowds are going to be like in France and I think we let it get the better of us but I’m really proud of the girls, we kept fighting to the end.”

Clare Polkinghorne agreed, saying “it wasn’t a 3-0 game”. “We did play a lot of good football and created a fair few chances, especially early in the first half, and if we score early then it’s a different game. We just have to learn and move forward,” Polkinghorne said.
