The Women's World Cup saw another amazing result, as Japan beat Spain 4-0, 4.55 times W, and finished top of Group C with 11 goals scored and 0 conceded in 3 matches, while Spain finished in second place.
Japan won the 2011 Women's World Cup and were runners-up in 2015, but were considered out of contention when they finished in the last 16 of last year's tournament. However, this year's rejuvenated team is back to the world's best with a 5-0 win over Zambia in the group stage, a 2-0 win over Costa Rica in the next match, and a 4-0 thrashing of Spain in the current match.
Spain are 2.7 times the favorites to win the tournament, and with a draw against Japan, they will be able to finish first with a better goal difference. However, they lost in the first 12 minutes of the match, and were broken by Miyazawa Hinata, and then Ueki Riko extended the lead to 2-0 in the 29th minute, and then Miyazawa Hinata added another in the 40th minute, giving Japan a 3-0 lead at halftime.
