LIVE: ‘Exquisite’ defence denies Matildas first goal

That probably should’ve been 1-0 to the French.

The French win back-to-back corners. From the second one, the ball is cleared but crossed straight back in.

The ball then found its way to Maëlle Lakrar who had an open goal to tap it into, but she puts it over the crossbar.

“That’s a terrible miss,” Amy Chapman said in commentary for Optus Sport.

Co-commentator Kevin Keatings said it was an “escape”.
