Westfield Matildas v China at Bankwest

Sam Kerr was back in the Westfield Matildas starting XI and lead the team out at Western Sydney Stadium

The team belts out the anthem with pride in front of a healthy crowd at Parramatta

Goalkeeper Lydia Williams and Kerr share a lighter moment before kick-off

Coach Ante Milicic made seven changes to the starting side which beat Thailand on Monday night

With top spot in the group on the line, the challenges were flying in early on

There was little room to move in the midfield, while the marking was tight at set pieces

Sam Kerr shows her athleticism to get the ball under control

China applied plenty of pressure but Australia's defence held firm, with Alanna Kennedy often on hand to make a clearance

Elise Kellond-Knight keeps her eye on the ball

After her hat-trick against Thailand, van Egmond was often heavily marked by the Chinese defence

Chloe Logarzo was at the heart of a lot of good moments for the Matildas

Despair for the Matildas as China scored through Tang Jiali with just four minutes left

But van Egmond would be the hero, here she is watching her powerful shot rifle into the top corner of the net

Cue mass celebrations amongst the Matildas players

Players came from everywhere to celebrate with the goalscorer

It was pure joy for defender Clare Polkinghorne

Even keeper Lydia Williams raced from her box to join in the celebrations

With the score at 1-1, the Matildas would top the group ahead of China on goal difference

And you could see the relief on the players' faces

The fans were ectstatic with the result, and the chance to meet the players after the match
