The Westfield Matildas' eight-match winning run has come to an end following a 0-0 draw with Portugal at the Algarve Cup.
Even the in-form Sam Kerr was unable to find a way through the well-organised host nation, although Australia will feel aggrieved not to have been awarded an early penalty.
They now lead Group A by one point following Norway's 2-0 win over China PR.
Catch up with the key stats and facts from Saturday morning's encounter.
- This was the first game Australia have failed to win since a 1-1 draw with Denmark in last year's Algarve Cup, which they eventually lost on penalties.
- They had won eight in a row in all competitions since that match.
- This was the Westfield Matildas' first goalless draw since facing Brazil at the Olympic Games in August 2016, 566 days ago.
- Australis scored 49 goals in the 12 matches between the two 0-0 stalemates (4.1 per game).
- Alen Stajcic's side have kept two clean sheets in their last four matches in all competitions, as many as they had in their previous 15 combined.
