Australia captain Sam Kerr (left) said on Friday the Women’s World Cup had been the best weeks of her career and she planned to stick around for the next one in four years’ time. The 29-year-old will lead her side out for one last game on Saturday when they face Sweden in the third-place playoff in Brisbane, with a bronze medal at stake. 

“I think for us all it has been the most amazing four weeks of our careers. Not only what has happened on the pitch, but off it too has been amazing. We have one more game where we can really end on a high,” she said.
