Australia forward, Caitlin Foord, is hoping to net a hat-trick against Nigeria in their 2023 women’s World Cup Group B clash on Thursday.
Foord stated this during a mock interview conducted by Australia goalkeeper Mackenzie Arnold.
Co-hosts Australia will hope to make it back-to-back wins at this year’s World Cup when they take on the Super Falcons.
In their opening game against debutants Republic of Ireland, the Australians won 1-0.
The Falcons held Olympic champions Canada to a hard fought 0-0 draw, with Chiamaka Nnadozie making a penalty save.
Asked by her teammate how she is feeling heading to the game:”I’m feeling really good, really positive,” Foord replied in the interview posted on Australia’s women’s national team’s Twitter handle.
When quizzed on how many goals she thinks she will score:”I think two and if I’m feeling it, three.”
Both Foord and Arnold were in action for Australia in their 1-0 win against Republic of Ireland.
Foord made her debut for the Australia women’s national team in 2011 and has scored 29 goals in 108 appearances.
