Adorable moment Mary Fowler beams with joy after seeing boyfriend Nathan Cleary cheer her on from the stands during Matildas game against Taiwan… and she scores just minutes later!

Nathan Cleary played the supportive friend as the NRL superstar cheered on his new girlfriend Mary Fowler during the Matildas’ clash with Taiwan.

Fowler, with the wind in her sails after stepping out with 25-year-old Cleary on an intimate date in a Perth park on Wednesday, posed Australia’s biggest threat in a first half that ended goalless.

After a team talk from Tony Gustavsson at half-time, Fowler returned to the pitch and saw Cleary’s face on the big screen as the Penrith hero chatted with friends before the start of the second half at HBF Park.

A wide smile spread across her face as she laughed with teammates, clearly happy to see her new friend present.

That confidence booster certainly helped, with Fowler finding the back of the net early in the second half to put the Matildas ahead against their rivals.
