Women’s World Cup 2023 live news and updates: England reach quarter-finals, USWNT fallout, final last-16 games

Date:

When the World Cup draw first came out last October, England looked as if they would face co-hosts Australia or Olympic champions Canada in the last 16, before facing Germany in the quarter-finals.

Some were even talking about a U.S. vs England final. How times have changed.

If they win that match on Saturday, they will face France, Morocco, Denmark or Australia in the semi-finals. Going on form, France or Australia seem the most likely opponent. England are ranked above all of those teams. They are also the tournament favourites.
