CHINA P.R. 0

Australia continued their 10-match unbeaten, but missed out on a maiden appearance in the Algarve Cup Final on goal difference after beating a much-improved China PR 2-0.

The injury-hit Matildas needed to win by a four-goal margin to reach Wednesday’s decider, but it was China PR who threatened the goal more regularly in the first half, only to squander a number of chances.
