Tom Sermanni's latest spell in charge of the Matildas got underway on Saturday morning in Zurich as they went head to head with Switzerland for the first time.

The Matildas then crossed the border to take on Germany in Duisburg on Tuesday morning (AEDT).
They were soundly beaten by the Germans at the Olympics which may have been their source of inspiration as Kyra Cooney Cross' first goal in Matildas colours stole the show on what was legendary striker Alexandra Popp's farewell match.
