LIVE SITE TO SHARE MATILDAS FEVER

Fans can cheer on Matildas in Asian Cup
FOOTBALL fans can come together and cheer on the Matildas at a special live site at Blacktown as Australia tries to win the Women's Asian Cup on home soil.
 
Warrick Lane will offer a green and gold atmosphere as supporters urge on the likes of Sam Kerr and Ellie Carpenter on the big screen.
 
Comfy bean bags will be provided for seating and a range of food will be readily available from surrounding outlets.
 
The live site will operate for each of the Matildas group games:
 
Sunday 1 March against The Philippines.
Thursday 5 March against Iran.
Sunday 8 March against Korea.
Kickoff is 8 pm (AEDT) for all three games. 
 
Blacktown City Mayor Brad Bunting encouraged everyone to share the spirit.
 
“The Matildas have really captured the nation’s heart in recent years and been a great source of pride for all Australians.  
 
“Our live site is a fantastic opportunity for everyone to share the excitement of the tournament and cheer on the Tillies together.”
 
Taylor Bigeni, 12, plays for Western City Rangers and was looking forward to watching the action at the live site with family and friends.
 
“I think the Matildas can do really well and it will be fun to watch the game with everyone and cheer them on,” she said.
 
Should the Matildas progress beyond the group stage, there are plans for the live site to show Australia’s matches.
