Sam Kerr is back to captain Australia for her fifth Women's Asian Cup

Sam Kerr will captain Australia in her fifth Women's Asian Cup and Matildas coach Joe Montemurro has decided to take a chance on Mary Fowler’s fitness by naming her in his squad Thursday for the Australia-hosted regional soccer tournament beginning in 10 days. Fowler is back in a Matildas squad for the first time since April of last year when she required a right knee reconstruction after sustaining a rupture to her anterior cruciate ligament while playing for Manchester City in the Women’s FA Cup semifinals.
