Matildas Aim for Group A Top Spot Against South Korea

The Matildas, playing at home under interim coach Tom Sermanni, look to beat South Korea to top Group A.

Australia’s Matildas take the field at home in the Women’s Asian Cup 2026, backed by a squad featuring key players from top clubs. With interim coach Tom Sermanni at the helm, the team has already beaten South Korea twice in April, raising expectations for a win that would secure the group lead.

South Korea remains the toughest opponent the Matildas have faced this tournament, and only England has presented a higher challenge since the two‑game series in October. A victory would cement Australia’s position at the top of Group A.
