The Women’s World Cup finalists are USA and Japan. The scorelines of the two matches were identical, both ended with 3-1 and their progresses were almost the same!

USA scored an early goal at 9 minutes and France found an equalizer in the early stage of second half, but then USA went on to score two more goals and that sent them straight into the Final.

On the other hand, Japan too, scored an early goal at 10 minutes and Sweden found an equalizer soon after, but then Japan went on to score two more goals in the second half which secure their place in the Final.

Final will play on Sunday. Japan vs USA!

Therefore all the quarterfinalists were out:
Colombia vs Peru
Argentina vs Uruguay
Brazil vs Paraguay
