The 2023 Women's World Cup is well underway, with 32 nations ready to give it their all in Australia and New Zealand to try and claim World Cup glory.

The first two semifinal spots have been decided, with Spain qualifying for the first time ever, before Sweden upset Japan in the second semifinal, meaning for the first time the semifinals will only feature teams who have never won the tournament.

The quarterfinals conclude today as co-hosts Australia have a massive match against France, before England clash with underdogs Colombia in Sydbey.

The final quarterfinal matches take place today, with co-hosts Australia taking on France in Brisbane in what is one of the biggest matches in Australian football history, with a sold out crowd and millions around the country tuning into the match at home and at lives sites all over Australia.

The later quarterfinal will see England attempt to progress to a third straight semifinal when they take on Colombia. Despite being heavy favourites against the unfancied South Americans, they were made to work hard against Nigeria and will be without star attacker Lauren James for two matches after she was sent off for violent conduct.

World Cup matches, results yesterday

Yesterday saw the first two quarterfinal's take place, with both being dramatic for different reasons.

In Wellington, Spain thought they were sneaking away with a tight win when they scored an 80th minute penalty, but a stoppage time goal from Stephanie van der Gragt meant the game went into extra time.

Spain would ultimately prevail thanks to a goal from Salma Parraluello, meaning they qualified for the semifinals for the first time ever.

In the later match, Sweden put on a tactical masterclass to go up 2-0 against Japan, who had been the most impressive team at the tournament thus far.

The 2011 champions fought back, scoring a goal in the 87th minute to set up a grandstand finish, but the Swedes would hold on despite Japan hitting the post late on and being ruled out by goal line technology.

Date Time Match Stadium
August 11 9:00 p.m. ET (August 10) Spain 2-1 Netherlands Wellington Regional Stadium
August 11 3:30 a.m. ET Japan 1-2 Sweden Eden Park
