The Matildas' victories against New Zealand have quelled the sense of unease around the team, but they should not be viewed as job done.
Rose Lavelle and Catarina Macario each had two goals, Trinity Rodman scored her first international goal as the USWNT routed Uzbekistan 9-0.
A stunning strike from Hayley Raso helped the Matildas take another step towards next year's Women's World Cup in Canberra on Tuesday.
Sophia Smith scored a hat trick as the United States women's national team cruised past Uzbekistan 9-1 on Saturday in an international friendly.
Forward Sophia Smith nets three goals as the USWNT comfortably beats Uzbekistan 9-1.
Katrina Gorry was back in the Matildas team vs. New Zealand after almost two years, and it was like she had never been away.
