Matildas coach Tony Gustavsson is suddenly in damage control. It’s fair to say Gustavsson was stunned by his team’s underwhelming — if not embarrassing — performance against Germany in their Paris Opener that led to the brutal 3-0 loss and a Olympics campaign virtually in tatters. The Matildas — who were fourth both in the Tokyo Games and last year’s World Cup — now have a dramatic showdown with Zambia in Nice on Monday morning .
“It’s just amazing to see the support back home and I know we disappointed a lot of people. “Please set the alarm for the next game as well because the players feed off the support they get. “Hopefully we can make them proud against Zambia.” Before the tournament Gustavsson was talking a big game. The Matildas flew in to France on a private jet and Gustavsson talked about rolling out the red carpet for his high-profile stars.
