Australia already captivated a nation as co-hosts of the Women's World Cup. Now there's one more thing to play for, even if it's not the fairytale ending the team had wanted for this tournament.
Australia's men's basketball team, the Boomers, were slated to play a tune-up game against Brazil on Wednesday night in preparation for their World Cup but moved the game up two hours to watch the Matildas in the semifinals. Kerr, one of the best players in the world, struggled with a calf injury at the start of the tournament, but started against England. She was a second-half substitute in the Matildas' shootout victory over France in the quarterfinals.
The Swedes made a mark on the tournament in the round of 16 when they ended the U.S. team's run toward an unprecedented third consecutive World Cup title. Zecira Musovic had a World Cup record 11 saves and Sweden advanced on penalties after a scoreless draw — sending the Americans home earlier than ever before.
