An exciting semi-final match was played between the England women's soccer team and the enthusiastic hosts, the Australian women's soccer team. In contrast, England seemed to be on their way to the final and had a much easier time against Spain. Toon took a 1-0 lead for England when he deftly finished off a teammate's pass in the penalty area and fired a shot through the opposition's goal. Although Australia equalized in the second half with a goal from Cole, England didn't let up and Hemp and Russo scored back-to-back goals to seal a 3-1 victory. With this feat, England's women's soccer team created a new chapter in their history by reaching their first World Cup final!

In a group match that was a matter of life and death, China had a chance to beat England, and with just two goals from their opponents, they were expected to advance to the top 16. However, in this crucial match, the Chinese team lost 6-1 and said goodbye to the World Cup. Although England made it all the way to the final, the victory was a "heroic" sacrifice for the Chinese team.
