Despite the Devastating Feeling, Former Serena Williams’ Coach Pens Down Riveting Message Hailing the Aussie’s Indomitable Spirit

In the end, it was a case of so near, yet so far, for the Australian women’s soccer team in the ongoing Women’s Soccer World Cup. They gave it their all but couldn’t overcome the challenge of the English side at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup. England was far more superior to Australia in the semifinal and the final score line of 3-1 justified their dominance. Nonetheless, the hosts exited the tournament with heads held high after exceeding expectations. As The Matildas bid goodbye to the fans, Serena Williams’ former coach, Rennae Stubbs, had a special message for them.

Stubbs is a big supporter of the Australian women’s soccer team and often shares her views about it on social media. Just hours ago, she heaped praise on Sam Kerr and her Australian team.

During the semifinal match, Sam Kerr caught the attention of soccer fans with a wonderful goal. It was the only one Australia scored against their opponent. Stubbs acknowledged that goal and thanked the team for inspiring the nation.

The 52-year-old took to Twitter and said, “Devastating for our @TheMatildas…. But that @samkerr1 goal will go down as one of the most incredible moments in Australia sports. What a goal. Congrats team on an amazing ride! Thanks for taking all of us with you….you inspired a nation.”

The result was on the expected lines as Australia’s fairy tale came to an end. On the other hand, England booked their place in the final and will face Spain in the summit clash. Meanwhile, Australia will take on Sweden in the third-place playoff match. It will take place on August 19, with the final scheduled the following day.

Further, Serena’s husband, Alexis Ohanian, is a big supporter of women’s sports. Earlier this week, he shared a wonderful video of fans going crazy for Australia during a flight.

What did Alexis say about the viral video?

Before the semifinal encounter, a viral clip showed Australian fans celebrating in a crazy fashion on a flight. It was an amazing gesture for women’s sports, receiving great attention worldwide.

Reacting to this video, the Reddit co-founder said, “Beautiful moment. Women’s football has captured the attention of Oz. Love to see it. @WeAreAngelCity and all women’s football clubs are riding a tidal wave.”
