Latest posts Latest posts 3.46pm Panama's starting XI Panama has arrived at the Hands Oval and has named their starting lineup featuring key forward Marta Cox, who scored the team's first-ever World Cup goal in Sydney nearly two years ago. Cox will captain the side this evening and will be one to keep an eye on. 3.40pm Matildas' starting XI Veteran Hayley Raso will lead out the Matildas in Bunbury, joined by Tegan Micah, who is back between the goal posts after delivering a clean sheet in the first match against Slovenia. Alana Murphy has been named in the starting lineup for the first time in her career. This will be the fourth international appearance for the 19-year-old Melbourne Victory midfielder. On the bench, looking to make their debuts for the Matildas are Grace Kuilamu, Jacynta Galabadaarachchi, Adriana Taranto and Alexia Apostolakis. 3.30pm Hello and welcome Good afternoon and welcome to our live coverage of the Matildas friendly against Panama at the Hands Oval in Bunbury. It's the Matildas first-ever match in the city as a very green squad takes on the South American side currently ranked 56th in the FIFA women's world rankings. My name is Frances Howe, and I'm here to take you through today's match as total of five players could make their Matildas debuts this afternoon. Several veteran players left the training camp on Monday following Australia's 3-0 and 1-1 games against Slovenia last week. Mackenzie Arnold, Ellie Carpenter, Kyra Cooney-Cross, Winonah Heatley, Alana Kennedy and Jada Whyman have all left camp. We'll follow up with more team news shortly.
