Westfield Matildas down DPR Korea in thriller

A true striker’s goal from substitute Kyah Simon in the dieing moments of a hotly contested clash has seen the Westfield Matildas defeat fifth-ranked Asian heavyweights DPR Korea 3-2 at Ballymore Stadium.

After recording a 2-all draw with the DPR Koreans just three days earlier, the Australians were desperate to hold out the visiting side in the second game of the series.
