The Westfield Matildas will take on soccer powerhouse Brazil on Saturday, in front of 17,000 fans; their biggest home crowd since the Sydney Olympics.

The match at Penrith’s Pepper Stadium is the first of two international friendlies, with a second match on 19 September in Newcastle.

The two-match series is part of the NSW Government’s five-year partnership with Football Federation Australia (FFA).

NSW Minister for Western Sydney and Minister for Sport Stuart Ayres said, “The Matildas’ world-beating performance at the Tournament of Nations in August was inspirational and this series was always going to be the hottest ticket in town.”

“Brazil will be out to avenge their 6-1 loss to the Aussies last month, and I have no doubt Western Sydney and Hunter residents will get right behind the Matildas in what promises to be a fiercely competitive match.”
