The Matildas have continued their quest to the Paris Olympics in style after beating Chinese Taipei 3-0 to make it three wins from three in round two of qualifying.
The victory sees the Aussies progress straight through to Round Three in February next year to determine which two teams from the Asian Confederation will qualify for Paris 2024.
Despite the defeat, the Chinese Taipei put up a tough fight, keeping Australia scoreless in the first half.
But a stunning strike from golden girl Mary Fowler minutes into the second half broke the game open for the Matildas, who continued to pile them on.
The POWER of FOWLER 💪
A breathtaking goal from Mary Fowler gives @TheMatildas the goal they’ve been searching for!

Sam Kerr doubled the lead just six minutes later by scoring Australia’s 900th goal, before Tameka Yallop also found the back of the net to seal the deal.
The Matildas will now close out 2023 in Canada, taking on the Olympic Champions in two friendly games in early December.
