It was under pressure and it was one of those goals that looked easier than it actually was, but it probably should have been Australia’s fourth goal.

Anyway… we are quickly approaching half time. And before us, Iran makes a change: Defender Atefeh Ramezanizadeh comes off, replacing Fatemeh Pasandideh.

Australia 3-0 Iran, 42 minutes
