Australian keeper Arnold saved three French spot kicks — all while missing one of her own — in a penalty spectacular that had all 49, fans in Brisbane Stadium on tenterhooks. Australia's tenth-choice penalty taker Vine slotted the deciding kick to send the Matildas into the World Cup semifinals for the first time in their history. She smashed her kick against the post though, extending an enthralling spot kick contest. Arnold then saved from Kenza Dali but VAR saw, correctly, that she was off her line and ordered a retake.
