For some reason the red card in this match to Tameka Butt meant she left the field but apparently it was agreed that she be allowed to be replaced. This suggests it was little more than a training match but the concept of 'A' and 'B' internationals for underage matches makes our heads spin, so we'll leave it alone. This was a Friendly match.
