Hello and welcome to the last quarter-final of this Women’s World Cup! England take on Colombia in what is set to be a thrilling match.
England’s group stage was a steady build in performances ending in a huge 6-1 win over China. But in the last 16 they were challenged by Nigeria with the game having to be decided on penalties. The team will also be without one of its stars as Lauren James was handed a two-match ban for her red card.
Colombia, on the other hand, dealt one of the biggest shocks of the tournament with their 2-1 win over Germany in the group stage. In the last 16 they also impressed, becoming the first team able to score against Jamaica.
The Lionesses will head into the match as favourites but the game will be more evenly matched than a lot of fans may think. The teams news for both sides will be out shortly and so stay tuned ahead of kick-off at 11.30am BST/8.30pm AEST.
