    I thought these teams cancelled each other out a bit.

    But the difference? Australia's quality in the final third.

    The chances they created in the final third, four on target, two goals, much more efficient than Denmark.

    When Sam Kerr came on, that was the moment when I got excited.

    The poster girl of the tournament coming on for her first appearance, the smile on her face when she runs on.

    This is what football is all about.

    Plenty of fans have stuck around after the final whistle as the Matildas make their way around the stadium for a lap of honour.

    The beaten Denmark team had a huddle in the middle of the pitch before a mini walkabout to show their appreciation too as they bow out of the tournament.

    Australia have the momentum, and there are plenty of positive to take from that game.

    Main one, poster girl Sam Kerr gets minutes ahead of the next game.

    How defensively disciplined they were in stopping a world class player in Pernille Harder.

    Overall, a real exceptional team performance.

    A convincing performance.

    Great performances from Raso and Foord, they brought the quality when Australia needed it.

    Denmark come forward down the right but anything they get now will surely be just a consolation.

    Exquisite touch by Pernille Harder as she flicks the ball over a defender. Sanne Troelsgaard picks the ball up as Harder makes a run into the box but Troelsgaard is forced wide and the chance is gone.

    You feel if Denmark can just get a goal back then it would make the last few minutes interesting.

    But it just doesn't look like happening.

    They seem to have run out of ideas and haven't really tested that Australia back line.
