Hockeyroos into Tri Nations final

The Hockeyroos have secured their spot in Sunday's Tri Nations final in New Zealand with a 3-0 win over the tournament hosts.

The Australians, who defeated the Kiwis 4-1 in their first game last weekend, once again claimed a small amount of revenge on Wednesday for last month's Commonwealth Games gold medal match defeat.

Queensland's Savannah Fitzpatrick got the ball rolling in the 14th minute with her first goal of the tournament.

The second quarter was scoreless as the Hockeyroos withstood some opposition pressure following Lily Brazel receiving a green card in the 21st minute.

The Hockeyroos continued to put the game out of reach with a goal from Rosie Malone - just her second in international competition - in the 40th minute.

The fourth quarter saw the Australians resume their scoring ways with a final goal from Stephanie Kershaw in the 57th minute to claim the win.

The Hockeyroos are into the final with three wins from three and a game in-hand against Japan on Thursday.
