The Guardian joined Australia fans at Melbourne's Federation Square, as well as supporters of Nigeria at local restaurant, Adonai Foods, for the Matildas' Group B game against the Super Falcons. It was Nigeria who won 3-2, leaving Australia at risk of an early exit. The Women's World Cup co-hosts must beat Canada in their final game to progress. Matilda supporters said they felt 'disappointed' by the result, and believe the team lost confidence after Nigeria scored two goals in quick succession.
