Old story, but it's funny as fuck. I wonder if they'll ever go for a rematch? I really doubt it.

"A former player is questioning how a 7-0 loss to an under-15 boys' team was allowed to happen.", "The fifth-ranked women's side in the world and quarterfinalists at the last three World Cups, the Matildas were beaten 7-0 by the under-15 outfit of A-League team the Newcastle Jets."

The answer to all their questions is right there in front of them.

No rematches, not when they're bemoaning the erosion of brand integrity.

How much integrity can your 'elite' international brand have when you suffer such a loss at the hands of the 14 yo local boys team?

Reminds me of the time the Williams sister claimed they could beat any man ranked 200th or lower. A mid-30s German player who had a habit of smoking in the changeovers, ranked in the 200s accepted their challenge and promptly beat them 6-1 6-2.

Australian women's football team thumped 7-0 by Newcastle under-15 boys team | Stuff.co.nz

'"Just thought Matildas brand might be a little more protected than being exposed in that manner," Peters said. ', "A former player is questioning how a 7-0 loss to an under-15 boys' team was allowed to happen.", "The fifth-ranked women's side in the world and quarterfinalists at the last three World Cups, the Matildas were beaten 7-0 by the under-15 outfit of A-League team the Newcastle Jets."

'"It's probably not good that the Matildas were beaten 7-0 last night by Newcastle Jets' under-15s," Rugari said on Twitter. '

'Former Matildas player Joey Peters responded to news of the 7-0 loss by questioning efforts of the team's management to protect the team's "brand integrity" in holding such a fixture. '
