Australia captain Sam Kerr says she is “definitely” going to be available to face Canada in Monday’s crucial final group match at the Women’s World Cup.
The Chelsea striker missed the co-host’s opening two games with a calf injury she suffered on the eve of the tournament.
“I’m feeling good,” said Kerr. “I was out on the pitch today.”
The Matildas suffered a shock 3-2 loss to Nigeria on Thursday to leave them facing a battle to reach the last 16.
“I’m definitely going to be available,” said Kerr, Australia’s all-time top scorer.
“The plan has always been the same – miss the first two games and then reassess.
“I’ve done everything under the sun to get fit to be selected. I’ve given everything in the last 10 days, and four years before that, to be here.”
