VAN EGMOND SETS UP MATILDA GOAL
The Matildas are charging their way to Rio, thrashing Vietnam nine-nil in their qualification match in Japan overnight.
Kyah Simon starred with a hat-trick, as the Aussies snatched their second straight win.
While Jets W-League midfielder Chloe Logarzo stayed on the bench against Vietnam, the Hunter’s Emily van Egmond again played a big part.
The 22-year-old dominated midfield, setting up the Matildas’ sixth goal in the second half, before scoring one of her own.
