The hosts Australia and fellow defeated semi-finalists Sweden will go one-on-one at the Suncorp Stadium in a match for 3rd place on Saturday at 08:00 GMT.

Key Highlights

Sweden lost their semi-final clash with Spain 2-1 in a match that the Spanish dominated with 63% possession and the most attempted shots.

Sweden had a good performance, characterized by compact and solid defending and a counterattacking approach in posing a goal threat. However, they lost to a confident and quality team in Spain and will look to get the consolation of winning third place against the hosts.

The Matildas ran England close for most of the match in the other semi-final. Australia were especially in the game after they equalized England’s first-half goal by Ella Toone through a wonderful strike by Sam Kerr.

However, England asserted their class with goals from Lauren Hemp in the 71st minute and Alessia Russo in the 86th minute, ensuring England progressed to the final.
