- The Matildas' game against France was the most watched Aussie sporting event since Cathy Freeman's 400m run in 2000, and we take a look at how fans across the nation reacted to the moment we made the semi-finals. Former Socceroo Craig Foster joins us.
#Matildas #TilItsDone #FIFAWWC
Craig Foster - you are a legend. You have articulated the significance of this moment so beautifully and further encouraged us all to whole-heartedly embrace this extraordinary opportunity to help our country evolve. Keep up the great work. Go Matildas. GO AUSTRALIA!!!! Aussie. Aussie. Aussie!!!
Football is by far the most participating, most supported and brings all communities together like no other. Football is the future of Australia
Hence the reason for some of the trolls who hate soccer
And other trolls who don't want women playing soccer
@@formless4541im not australian, but the womans really impressed me, it was a very organized team and all the players understand each other very well, their players are very technical and skillful individually, is football not the most popular sport in australia?
Now that my native Netherlands 🇳🇱 have been eliminated, I'll definitely be rooting for Australia. If nothing else, you and the Kiwis organised the best World Cup in a very long time - men or women. And you didn't even have to bribe FIFA for it.
Congrats to matildas from Costa Rica 🇨🇷 🇨🇷 🇨🇷
Yes we are here to support you from Indonesia , Australian you can do it the best winner
From uganda. Big fun of the Matildas. Sam Kerr big up chelsea.. Big up Mary Fowler so incredible.
What a great spokesman for the sport... will be watching from istanbul but wishing i was home!
From Canada, that was one of the most exciting football games I've ever watched. The shootout is legendary.
Australia is most definitely a SPORTS-NATION! Go for the title, Matildas - from a German fan 😍
Cheering on Australia from the US 🇺🇸 Best of luck Matildas! 🇦🇺
From America - Go Matilda’s!! We ❤ You. The power of sport to be a unifying force is on full display.
Go Matilda’s!! ⚽️ Go Aussies!! 🇯🇲🥰🇦🇺
So well said !!!! couldn't agree more, if we can get more people to support the lower grades from this then its only up from here ❤
Come on Australia!
I'm from Indonesia. Always support Matildas and Socceroos. 😀
NOT more soccerWHOS pleas red necks bogans out of FOOTBALL AUSTRALIAN !
Thing about Soccer: At 1 year of age(soon as we can walk)without having to learn any other skills, in the park or lounge room a child takes a few steps(pop a round ball in its path) & instinctively the kid kicks it. It's now playing soccer(as though its in our DNA) we all play & have played soccer(whether we realize it or not) Go the Matilda's!
The beauty of this WWC (and women's football)and the crowds, is that it is a family event.
No hooligans, violence, fanatics.
Excellent Message by Craig Foster. I've never loved a WWC game more than the warm, beautiful feeling after Australia v Denmark. The cheers for the goals, the rumblings as Sam Kerr warmed up for the 2nd half and the serenading the women as they won, was my favorite feeling the WWC 2023! Well done, Aussies!
Congrats to Australia from Brasil.🎉
They have definitely United us all. It’s awesome to see. Go on girls bring it home. Such a good point to about how this is really inspiring young girls to not just play but want to watch the games. They are inspiring the next generation of Aussie killers. So proud you guys, go hard girls.
Can we make sure if they make it to grand finals they play waltzing Matilda 💪
For those of us old enough to remember it was 1974 when Johnny Warren and Australia's Socceroo's - amateur players - yes amateurs - qualified our nation for the biggest team sporting tournament in the world. The nation was mesmerized back then too despite deriders from the "manly" codes calling the game "wogball" and a game for "sheilas, wogs, and pooftas". Behind the scenes and in front of the camera, there were people like Les Murray and Craig Foster and others helping to build the game from the ground up. There were famous women too whose names we should all learn about who persevered against even greater odds to see the sport thrive and grow among female athletes around the country.
Fact: There are more soccer players in Australia than all the other "football" codes combined - and have been for decades. Perhaps, the greatest achievement the Matildas have made through their tenacity, skill and perseverance is less about a stunning victory in such a high profile sporting event and more about helping us all overcome our prejudices through effort and excellence. "Sheilas, wogs and pooftas" no more. We are past that now.
GREAT! LOVE TO THE TILLYS FROM SAMOA! GO ALL THE WAY!
Australian Government MUST invest more in FOOTBALL ⚽️ from all Levels- Grassroots to Elite, in Australia!
It is the World Game for a Reason!
Over 200 Nations play Football, it's the MOST POPULAR SPORT!
Playing with pride, country support, and World joining behind you, Go Tillys!!
The Matilda's, absolute legends ❤
I was at Fed Square and the crowd was so epic!
No pretty much you guys were knobheads.
Craig Foster is amazing advocate of football in Australia, following in the footsteps is Johnny Warren.
Can we please nominate these women to be Australian(s) of the year no matter what the outcome for what they done to inspire so many girls, boys and families
Craig Foster is right on the mark here. Got to get out and support the local football/soccer clubs. It’s not a one off. Continued moments like these needs support at the local levels.
Also I wished the AFL and NRL would take note of what the Women have done with this World Cup. Bury the ego and stop trying to block Australia bidding for the Mens World Cup.
If AFL and NRL have to stand down for a month or even cancel a season so we can host the Mens World Cup then so be it. No one else in the World cares about AFL and NRL except those fans in Australia. Everyone cares about football/soccer
Something else you might find is some people who are really into netball are feeling a little threatened by soccer. Not most but some.
They don't want it taking over women's "souls" over netball
@@formless4541 Netball has lost fans because of their attitude in recent times. I watched them live in Sydney in 2015 in the Final when the World Cup was here. A great bunch of girls then. Now they’re taking political stances and most people generally don’t like that. No money in the game and they have played a part in it. Demanding pay rises the sport can’t afford etc
NRL Has Peter Valantis...who doesnt like our football being one step ahead of them in the world cup! at least AFL realised the importance of the matildas and had them on the big screen after their games. NRL was pissed off because they couldnt use Alliance and Accor stadium as FIFA rules state that ALL grounds that are used for the World Cup must ne vacated 21 days before the start of the tournament. I would like to be a fly on the wall at CEO houses of AFL and NRL with the popularity of Matildas !
@@Paul-ek3yr
You got it all twisted about the AFL and the importance of the Matildas. Afl did not want to give up the stadiums for the world cup hence why Melbourne has no quarter and semi finals.
To Melbourne's great loss as the so called sporting capital of Australia.@@John-ro3sh
Competition aside, this is wonderful to see, especially for women's football. This is what football should be about! The joy of winning and picking yourself up after defeat and going on to the next match. It can be such a unifying and all-engrossing thing. Commiserations on the semi-final but congratulations on holding such a great tournament and engaging with it with such fantastic enthusiasm! Brava!
We can beat the poms.
How did that work out for you then Susan? 😏
@@charliezobel511 very very very sad but my names not Susan it my fake utube name!
My real names Wendy as in Whinging Wendy as my mother the ten pound Pom used to call me.
@@suekennedy1595 well Wendy all I can say is that you Aussies, especially including a certain batsman who's been residing in Stuart Broad's top pocket for the last decade, have always taken great pleasure in our national football team forever falling short 🤔 karma is always ruthless you know, which is why our Lionesses bushwhacking your Matilda's in your own backyard was just so so sweet.
@@charliezobel511 never have watched the cricket not interested didn’t even finish your reply when I saw it was cricket sorry mate.
People say they don't like penalty shoots outs when really we love them. Great game😎
Bravo, well done 👍
Mary Fowler is such a queen
Eloquently put, well said.
Bravo Matildas 😊
Congratulations, Australia! This Yank is rooting for the Matildas! 🇦🇺🇺🇸

Good morning Australia, how you all feeling down there today then? 🦁🦁🦁 👊🏻🏴🏴🏴
Where are Perth during the beginning of the montage!? Always forgetting WA. Damn Project!
Why is that the Matildas and Socceroos, still don't have a home base. Look at what they're achieving on the world stage. Pull your head out arses Football Australia and build them a home base.
I was watching it from Brisbane Southbank!
This is patriotism..love for country and team...
Hey U.S. team... Take note on what it means to represent your country!!!!!!
macca is a absolute wall
BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO well done women
M A T E……EPIC❤❤❤
I noticed you didn't show any footage of Perth celebrating? last I knew Perth was still part of Australia
I hope the gals can keep nerves in check and go after the ball.
I love football/soccer and especially enjoy the world cups the most.
Why does Australia not have teams in a higher profile.
I want to see people at weekend games with stadiums full.
Congratulations Matildas , keep. Focused, we have two games left , we might not make it through
Relax please
Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi
Soccer not Australian footy should be our biggest national game. Soccer is a great beautiful game. World wide competition not afl. Good luck matilda’s you can do it.
Why do you call it ‘soccer’ then?
The same way they didn't celebrate the Cricket World Cup victory
Are you indian
@@Joeler435 I am Bengali
We desperately need recognizable chants and songs so we can show the Tillie's our support for them.
Any takers??????
Job’s not finished.
Stay focus Mathildas i believe you can do the impossible... England can be beaten if you guys are united, focus and play as a team the Lioness can be beaten... You have the whole Australia behind you, they support you and you have home advantage so Mathildas go for it.
🤩❤️🤩
Number of times the business Associations, National Party and Liberal Party have agreed to a Public Holiday for a sporting achievement (zero). Number of times they've turned up to spoil the party (30+)

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
FOR ONE SIDE IM HAPPY THAN SPAIN BEAT ENGLAND IN THE FINAL ....SPAIN GOT THE GUTS TO BEAT ENGLAND .
They celebrated it by thanking the referee for taking away France's goal
Why must previous first place sports person be mentioned? Why is that a certain race always need that put me in front in these moments. As for Foster, we support now because it’s the World Cups and after it’s all done, we have to come down to earth and figure how to make the dollar stretch. As in many winning sports team, it seems the craigs and the fosters always jumps on the band wagon. Yup this is my POV therefore no need to get upset lol. G’day y’all
Guess you've no idea who Craig Foster is ?
You maybe should of googled 1st before commenting.
Would of helped.
Imo.
As a matter of fact I know who craig foster is. I had no need to google and it may have helped but there you have it. We all have our differences in opinions. Thanks very much nevertheless. Cheers.
But the co-hosting Ferns have more players of color
🙄
So?
Seethe. 😂🤣
And where exactly did woke box ticking get New Zealand I wonder? Not often I fight the Aussies’ corner but at least they will always treat competitive sport as competitive sport.
Theres always one gronk 🙄
When
Aloisi penalty was better
Well done kangaroos
Wrong sport mate
Don't worry, England will get themt
Hmmmm....
Only problem is ...
You need to "beat" them..t
Absolutely right
england did indeed get them 🫢
FREE JULIAN ASSANGE NOW
Not one word Fozie, funny that.
Whats good for the Goose has to be good for the Gander. No double standards Fozie, if we are going to take the splinter out of Qatars eye we need to take the log out of our own. Show Australia 🇦🇺 if u are really behind human rights. Signed son of migrant who hates hypocrisy...
First we cheated France on the submarines, now in the soccer!
Man u should think twice, apparently u ve been tricked by the USA about the submarines.... U wont get the subs USA promised U initially(Australia) after breaking the contract with France
Foster too much of a leftie sorry
If thats her "best night of my life" then she has a pretty sheltered life.
seethe 🤣😂
Let Australia celebrate because on Wednesday they will be coming down to earth after losing to England
This is replay. The world cup is already won by England Women.
Hmmmm....
Not a social media comment section without the obligatory nut job conspiracy theorist.
Australia must say thank you to the referee, australian players were rude they should get at least several yellow card, nevertheless france team was very bad.
Will be nice putting the aussies out in their own back yard.
ENG 2 AUS 0
I'm betting ENG 3 AUS 1
Hmmmmmm...........
@@johngrey9780- is she match fit then
@@fruckya- I 2nd that
Only in your dreams mate.
Do really think you can beat England 😃😀😀😀🤡🤡🤡🤡 you Aussie make me laugh..
Totally 😂
Let them have their fun because it will end on Wednesday when England smash them
No one asked me about how I reacted to the matildas winning. Who gives a rat's!!!
seethe 🤣😂
