Original Note:
The game in question was a "friendly" game, organized partially due to a lack of women's teams in Australia. The women's team was playing not to win, but practice. Results of such a friendly match are not adequately indicative of skill. https://www.goal.com/en-us/news/australia-womens-soccer-team-faces-unfair-global-backlash/bltdd8c534a6c2984b1 https://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-05-28/matildas-face-backlash-after-loss-to-boys-team/7456458 https://www.huffpost.com/archive/au/entry/matildas-beaten-7-0-by-newcastle-jets-under-15-boys-team_au_5cd36f9ce4b02317c3c9a12b https://www.smh.com.au/sport/soccer/matildas-lose-70-in-friendly-against-newcastle-jets-u15-side-20160526-gp43yl.html
