The Matildas scored a perfect 10 as they booked their tickets to the Paris Olympics with a thumping 10-0 win over Uzbekistan.

Michelle Heyman scored four goals in the first half, and Kaitlyn Torpey kicked two — and set up many more — with the duo making coach Tony Gustavsson’s job of culling his qualifying squad of 21 down to 18 all the more challenging.
