Stalwarts Alanna Kennedy and Hayley Raso net for the Matildas as Australia outclass New Zealand 2-0 in their last game before the Asian Cup.

Matildas star Mary Fowler is progressing so well in her rehab from an ACL injury that coach Joe Montemurro is bullish on her inclusion in the Asian Cup.

USWNT's Olivia Moultrie believes signing a contract extension with the Portland Thorns is the right decision at this stage in her career.
