GOALS
Australia: Sam Kerr (40'), Haley Raso (47')
Matildas skipper Sam Kerr speaks after her side's 2-0 win over Thailand.
"It's nice to finish on a high for sure, four wins in a row after a tough year. We're feeling good, but ready to go for next year," she said.
"We need to get better at this part (finishing in front of goal), so it's a good challenge. We need to be better, but these are the challenges we want."
The Matildas finish 2022 on a high with four consecutive victories after easing to a 2-0 win over Thailand in Gosford!
Thailand were courageous and fought hard, but the gulf in class between the two sides was just too much to overcome, with Sam Kerr and Haley Raso the scorers.
Matilda McNamara is brought on for the final few minutes by Tony Gustavsson and she replaces Haley Raso, who was excellent tonight.
McNamara is the 151st player to represent Australia's women's team.
Beautiful scenes here as Elise Kellond-Knight is subbed on for the final six minutes after what's been a torturous run with injuries.
She replaces Katrina Gorry in Tony Gustavsson's midfield.
Australia going very, very close to adding a third to effectively kill this contest but they're being held at bay by the Thai defence.
Mary Fowler is operating on that left wing now and she's gone on a couple of jinking runs but has been unable to quite provide the finish.
10 minutes of normal time to go now plus stoppage time.
Matildas still well in control here as we head into the final stages of this one.
Steph Catley with the captain's armband now with Sam Kerr off and her and her fellow defenders are spending plenty of time on the ball.
Australia just trying to take the speed out of the game, because Thailand has looked extremely dangerous on the counter despite having very little of the ball.
Matildas skipper Sam Kerr's night is done after a solid 61-minute shift.
She's replaced by Alex Chidiac.
Orapin Waenngoen goes so close to getting one back for Thailand!
A couple of sloppy moments from the Matildas and suddenly Thailand found themselves inside Australia's penalty box.
Waenngoen with a strong shot and it forces a great save from Matildas keeper Teagan Micah.
