New Zealand were desperate to make a strong start, but were again playing catch-up early. They were under plenty of pressure right from the opening whistle with goalkeeper George Enersen making a fine save to keep out Josh Simmonds from a penalty corner. Australia took just three minutes to hit the front as striker Nathan Ephraums made it three goals in three games. Tim Brand did all the hard work, launching a cracking shot at goal, which Ephraums deflected in from close range. It was 2-0 late in the first quarter with Australia pouncing after a sustained period of attack. Tom Wickham reacted quickly after Enersen couldn t keep out the initial shot, putting New Zealand in an early hole.
