Silver Ferns captain Casey Williams was left disappointed on her side’s inability to hold onto a healthy lead against Australia last night.

In another chapter between the game's greatest rivals, the match went into overtime with the Diamonds winning 58-57 in an absolute thriller.

Shooter Maria Tutaia had the chance to claim victory for the Silver Ferns but missed her goal and the Diamonds made no such mistake down the other end to seal victory for the Australians.

Williams conceded Australia deserved the win after fighting back from seven points down to send the final into extra time.
