Sam Kerr

The second most prolific Matildas goal scorer, Kerr has gone from debuting at 15 against Italy to scoring goals at the AFC Women's Asian Cup, FIFA Women's World Cup and of course the Olympics.
Hayley Raso
It will be an Olympic debut for Hayley Raso in Tokyo. After missing out on Rio 2016, Raso has gone through a rollercoaster of emotions. Injury setbacks have seen her come back bigger and better and she has since made her FIFA Women's World Cup debut and played a role for club and country.
Raso spent the 2020-21 season with FA WSL side Everton, scoring five goals in 22 appearances in the league. The 26-year-old has been successful across continents, winning W-League trophies with her hometown club, Brisbane Roar, as well as Canberra United and with the Portland Thorns in the NWSL.
The speedy winger recently made her 50th appearance for the national team and she is sure to terrorise defences in Japan with her attacking prowess.

Gielnik started with another Olympic sport - basketball - however injuries at age 12 and encouragement from her parents saw her try football. Playing her junior football at Redlands United, Gielnik has gone on to enjoy success at Brisbane Roar and Melbourne Victory in the W-League.
She's also spent time in Japan, Germany, and Scandinavia where she is currently playing for Vittsjö GIK in Sweden's Damallsvenskan. With 10 goals in 41 national team appearances, the 29-year-old can make an impact up forward in Tokyo.

Kyah Simon
Kyah Simon is off to her second Olympic Games. From playing her junior football in Western Sydney, Simon has gone on to create history. She was the first Indigenous Australian to score at a FIFA World Cup - men's or women's.
She scored the winning penalty at the 2010 AFC Women's Asian Cup, and scored the goal which saw Australia win its first knockout game at a senior FIFA World Cup.
Injuries plagued her most recent club season but she found the back of the net twice for PSV in the Eredivisie Vrouwen from seven league appearances. The 30-year-old can play in multiple attacking positions and has used that versatility to claim four W-League championships and a Julie Dolan medal.
