Another day, another victory for USWNT! Days after clinching an easy 3-0 victory against Zambia, Emma Hayes and Co. continued with their winning spree, demolishing another Group B rival Germany 4-1. With the final group stage match remaining vs Australia, stars already look aligned for the American ladies to qualify for the quarter-finals, which raises the question of who their possible rivals could be.
Speaking of the four knockout stage fixtures, the first match sees the winner of Group B vs. runner-up of Group C. Match two sees winner of Group C vs. third in Group A or B, runner-up of Group A vs. runner-up of Group B is match 3 while winner of Group A vs. third in Group B or C stands out to be the fourth match.
Now there’s no doubt that USWNT will finish the group stage as leaders of Group B. Therefore, they will be facing the team that finishes second in Group C, where the current scenario sees Spain at the top with 6 points, Japan at second and Brazil at third with both sides sharing 3 points each, and Nigeria at the bottom with nil points. This suggests that USWNT will either face Japan or Brazil in the quarterfinals.
