Solomon Islands 🇸🇧 Women’s national team will play against Australia 🇦🇺 U-20 the Young Matildas in the first match at the Pacific Women’s Four Nations 2022 at AIS in Canberra.
Coach Batram Suri said Solomon Islands is going into the match as the underdog but they will compete against a strong young team who just came back from the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup.
Suri used his experience being a professional player in the past playing against Australia teams by saying it will be a tough challenge but he encouraged his players to take on the challenge.
Solomon Islands captain Ileen Pegi said playing against the Australia U20 national team gives them a good test and exposure to a high level of competition.
