The Matildas match will take place at the Paris 2024 Olympics, and they’ll be literally kicking things off on the day the Olympics begin: Friday, July 26th, 2024.

We anticipate you’ll be wide awake within the first few minutes of Matilda’s game, but if you’re wondering how long you’ll need to be chugging coffee, we’ve got the answers. Like any game of football, the Matildas Olympics match goes for 90 minutes with 45-minute halves. If there’s a tiebreaker, additional time and penalty shootouts

Is Sam Kerr Playing The Paris 2024 Olympics?
Unfortunately, crowd favourite and Matildas captain Sam Kerr won’t be playing the Paris 2024 Olympics thanks to a ACL injury during a Chelsea training camp session in Morocco back in January. As reported by theABC, goalkeeper Lydia Williams said: “We want Sam to be as fit and healthy as she can, and for her that’s taking her time with this injury. It’s a major injury.”
We’re sure Kerr will be tuning in with us from the sidelines.
