Brisbane (Australia), Aug 19 (Ians) Star forward Fridolina Rolfo continued to torment Australia as she scored one and set up the other as Sweden secured third place with a well-deserved 2-0 win over Australia here on Saturday.
Rolfo scored in the 30th minute via a penalty and then set up the goal by Kosovare Asllani as Sweden won the third-place play-off.
Rolfo scored twice in the group stage of the 2020 Women’s Olympic Football Tournament and once again in that competition’s semifinal. She was the thorn in the flesh for Australia once again on Saturday.
The victory, sealed by Asllani’s superb second-half strike, maintains the Scandinavians’ remarkable 100 per cent record in four FIFA Women’s World Cup bronze-medal playoffs and earns them a fifth podium finish -– second only to the USA (8).
It also provides a sad end to a memorable campaign for the Matildas, who had been hoping...

With the success of the U.S. women’s soccer team, they got the ball rolling and started “Un Sueño Real (A Real Dream),” a docu-series following this team’s transition from the First Division league.
However, when the coronavirus pandemic halted production and the football season, the filmmakers pivoted their storytelling. They followed the players into their homes. Stars such as Kosovare Asllani, Sofia Jakobsson and Thaisa became integral to the narrative as they continued training at home, but started to shared stories about parenting, politics, LGBTQ rights and anxiety.
