Football Australia CEO James Johnson said: “We are delighted to return to Queensland following last year’s recordbreaking FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ and are extremely pleased to have the CommBank Matildas return home against a powerhouse football nation in Brazil.

“Suncorp Stadium holds incredible memories for Australian football and to revisit a city and stadium that was central to such an historic night for Australian football will be special. We acknowledge and are grateful for the support of the Queensland Government in establishing a permanent commemoration of a tournament that unified the nation in unique way.

“Following the Subway Socceroos Round Three AFC Asian Qualifiers™ at Cbus Super Stadium earlier this month, we are also looking forward to being back on the Gold Coast, this time with the women’s national team with thanks to Experience Gold Coast. With several current CommBank Matildas born or raised in the region, it will be a special homecoming for them and reflects our commitment to continue showcasing the team across the country.

“The host of the next FIFA Women’s World Cup™, Brazil is a quality side who will provide a fantastic challenge for our team as we embark on our next four-year journey with the AFC Women’s Asian Cup™, FIFA Women’s World Cup 2027™ and LA 2028™ Olympic Games on the horizon.”

“We are thrilled to once again work with the Queensland Government through Tourism and Events Queensland
plus Experience Gold Coast to bring high-quality national team matches to the state,” concluded Johnson.
Queensland Minister for Sport and Tourism, Michael Healy, said: "The Miles Government is proud to partner with Football Australia and the City of Gold Coast to bring our magnificent Matildas back to Queensland."

"Suncorp Stadium will always hold pride of place for hosting Australia's greatest ever performance at a senior
football World Cup, and one of the nation's most memorable sporting moments, when the Matildas beat France in the quarterfinals of the FIFA Women’s World Cup™. 

"I know that Queensland football fans are champing at the bit to see the team in action again, both at Suncorp
Stadium and at Cbus Super Stadium, particularly against such a highly rated opposition like Brazil."

City of Gold Coast Acting Mayor Cr, Donna Gates, said: “Matildas Mania will fire up on the Gold Coast … I’m
predicting a sell-out at Cbus Super Stadium.’’

“This match will showcase the Gold Coast when our city’s name is beamed into the loungerooms of millions of
supporters across South America. Grab your tickets and start waving the green and gold.’’

Experience Gold Coast CEO, John Warn, said: “The Gold Coast has scored another goal in securing the Matildas as they take on Brazil at Cbus Super Stadium.”

“The increasing popularity and success of female sports – from grassroots to the world stage – is a key driver in
Experience Gold Coast’s strategy to capitalise on opportunities to host sporting events in our city and reinforce our status as a sporting epi- centre.”

Australia and Brazil have a storied history between them in women’s football, however, the last time the two teams met was back in 2021 where Australia recorded a 3-1 win and 2-2 draw in Sydney. Seleção has been played in Brisbane on two occasions with their last visit to the Sunshine State during the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ when they faced France in the group stage.

Fans will be able to watch the CommBank Matildas’ series against both Brazil and Chinese Taipei live and free on 10 and 10 Bold thanks to Football Australia’s broadcast partner, Paramount Australia.
