weden and Spain go head to head in Auckland today for a place in the Women’s World Cup final.

Spain reached this stage of the World Cup for the first time in their history courtesy of a hard-fought 2-1 win over the Netherlands in Wellington last week, with Barcelona teenager Salma Paralluelo coming off the bench to net a dramatic extra-time winner after Mariona Caldentey’s opener had been cancelled out by Stefanie van der Gragt.
Sweden were losing finalists in 2003 and have finished third on no fewer than three separate occasions, including at the last World Cup in France in 2019.
They made it through to the semis once again by knocking out 2011 champions Japan at Eden Park, with goals from Arsenal’s Amanda Ilestedt and Manchester City’s Filippa Angeldahl ensuring they resisted a late fightback. Here’s how to catch all the last-four action live this morning.
