The documentary Never Say Die Matildas (2008) follows the team’s 2007 FIFA World Cup campaign, going behind the scenes as the team prepares for the tournament in China.
The documentary shows the Matilda’s emergence as a team to be reckoned with on the global stage.
This clip shows the end of their thrilling 1-1 draw with Norway as Lisa De Vanna kicks a goal to level the score. We also see snippets from interviews with players after the game and scenes of the Chinese fans cheering De Vanna’s name as she stops to sign autographs.
The National Film and Sound Archive of Australia acknowledges Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work and live and gives respect to their Elders both past and present.
