Meanwhile, the Junior Matildas have claimed a 2-1 win on the Gold Coast, in a friendly match against Myanmar.
The Hunter’s Kirsty Fenton was part of the starting side.

But the home side restored its lead thanks to a Myanmar own-goal in stoppage time.
The Junior Matildas are preparing for the Under-16 Asian Championship’s second phase of qualifying, in Laos in March.
