Full-time: Australia fall 1-0 to Japan in the Asian Cup final… and it hurts 😔 Caitlin Foord taking responsibility after missing big chances, saying she “needs to do better.” Steph Catley proud of the team and what they represent. Sam Kerr calling it “disappointing” in the moment. Mary Fowler saying it hurts being so close… especially in a game they could have won. So much emotion, but also so much to be proud of — this squad gave everything. 💛💚 What do you think — unlucky or just not clinical enough? 👀 #matildas #asiancup #australia #japan #football @matildas @caitlinfoord @stephcatley @samanthakerr20 @maryfowlerrr
"It's like asking a bee to explain to a fly why honey is better than sh*t." Japanese manager Nils Nielsen gave a fascinating and hilarious answer when asked who he thought the favourite was ahead of the AFC Women’s Asian Cup final between Japan and Australia on Saturday night. 🤔 Really got me thinkin though...

WATCH: It’s MD-1 until the AFC Asian Cup Final. It was an entertaining press conference today, with no team wanting to embrace or allocate favouritism - Japan coach Nils Nielsen had one of the all time analogies when speaking about it (slight language warning). In light of today’s announcement about women in coaching, it’s also worth talking about the Aussie women on the opposing coaching benches. 📸 Getty/HER WAY Sports Media
Japan edges Australia 1-0 to win the Women’s Asian Cup 🏆💙💛! Maika Hamano’s stunning 17th-minute strike proved decisive, but the Matildas came close again and again. Caitlin Foord missed three golden chances, Sam Kerr was tightly marked, and Mary Fowler created dangerous openings early. Toko Koga nearly doubled Japan’s lead before halftime, while Hayley Raso and Emily van Egmond saw late opportunities blocked. Alanna Kennedy’s header was saved, and the record crowd of 74,397 watched Australia fall just short. Could the Matildas have turned one of those chances into a goal and forced extra time? What was the moment that decided this final?

I've loved watching the Asian Cup and I'm so proud of the Matildas making the final tonight! It's going to be a tough one against Japan. Let's go Tillies!! 💛⚽️💚
The Matildas 🇦🇺 could win the Womens Asian Cup 🏆 on home soil tonight. Australia will face Japan 🇯🇵 in the final of the Women’s Asian Cup at Stadium 🏟️ Australia in Sydney. Japan are the favourites, after having an incredible tournament run so far. But the Matildas have beaten heavyweight teams like France 🇫🇷, England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 and Brazil 🇧🇷 before, and we can do it again. Matildas had some injury scares with Sam Kerr but seems she is alright. No news about Clare Hunt though who seems to have been absent from training. 🤷‍♀️ Riko Ueki of Japan 🇯🇵 & Alanna Kennedy are both neck to neck in the golden boot race (for most goals scored) ⚽️ and could be the tournament top scorer today. It’s a tough game, but let’s go Tillies 💚💛💚💛 #matildas #samkerr #alannakennedy #hayleyraso #womensasiancup
The Matildas just set the standard for what a home crowd sounds like in Australia 🤷 74,397 fans at Stadium Australia turned the AFC Women’s Asian Cup Final into an absolute cauldron against Japan. Being on the ground, you can see the Matildas are doing what the legacy codes struggle with (or should i say dream of), actually building a new generation of fanatics 🤫 By turning new Gen Z and Alpha spectators into sport fans, the Matildas are single handedly shaping the future of Australian sports culture. No matter their gender, heritage, background or orientation, this is a new generation of Australian fans that finally sees themselves reflected in the team and in the stands. The Tillies are the gold standard they now live and breathe.
