    Building the Matildas’ legacy with Michelle Heyman

    Building the Matildas’ legacy with Michelle Heyman

    Former Matilda Michelle Heyman is featured in the latest episode of our podcast On Side.

    Michelle played for Australia 61 times between 2010-2018, booting 20 goals before a series of injuries forced her to retire from international duties in 2019.

    When Cortnee Vine’s penalty kick hit the back of the net against France, the whole of Australia roared as one. The recognition and support was a long time coming, says the former Australian striker.

    “This is something that I think every single Matilda or every single female athlete has wanted for such a long time, she says. “To see something so special like our World Cup, to see those numbers, to see the amount of people in the stands on home soil is incredible. We've pushed for this. We've tried to sell our brand for a very long time.”

    She says the support the team received from other sporting teams – men and women - was incredible.

    “Seeing the Boomers with all their jerseys on and changing the time of their game just so they could watch the girls, that's something special.”

    The W-League all-time record goal-scorer also talks about the Matildas' inspiring run to the semis, the growth of female sport and what keeps driving her on the pitch.
