Jhaniele Fowler scored 47 goals as Jamaica upset favourites Australia, who will now face the winners of England v New Zealand
Australia’s two-pronged attack of Gretel Bueta and Steph Wood did all they could to get Australia home, but costly turnovers ultimately led the Diamonds to an unexpected defeat.
“It’s surreal, we’ve not beaten Australia at a Commonwealth Games and to come here and do it with an incredible team, just go out there and prove everyone wrong was really good,” Fowler said afterwards.
