The 2023 edition of Cup of Nations has concluded with the Matildas taking out the tournament on home soil.
Australia won all three of their games, scoring 10 goals and conceding just twice in the process to edge out Spain for the title.
The triumph will give the Matildas plenty of confidence ahead of the Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand come July.

Cup of Nations 2023 teams and format
The Cup of Nations is an invitational women's football tournament, held in a round-robin format.
Football Australia organised the event again this year, inviting the Czech Republic, Spain and Jamaica to compete alongside the Matildas.
Australia's coach Tony Gustavsson explained the Matildas' international opponents were chosen with World Cup preparation in mind.
“Spain, Czechia and Jamaica have been carefully selected for the Cup of Nations to ensure we have the right preparation heading into the FIFA Women’s World Cup,” Gustavsson said.
“Not only are all three nations filled with quality, but they also provide a difference in playing style and approach with the three-match days aiming to mirror tournament group play to the best of our ability.”
Each nation played each other once, with a standard scoring system (three points for a win, one for a draw) used.
The team atop the table after the three match days - Australia - were named champions.
