Australia’s first game in the 2023 Cup of Nations tournament saw Australia patiently carve out a 4-0 victory over a challenging opponent in Czech Republic.

A brace from Hayley Raso and singles from Sam Kerr and Clare Polkinghorne were well and truly enough to win the game.

The game also saw Clare Polkinghorne become Australia’s most-capped footballer.
