FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023: England beats Colombia 2-1 to set up semifinal clash against Australia

The Hindu  

Alessia Russo’s second-half goal lifted England to a thrilling 2-1 quarterfinal victory over Colombia on Saturday and into the World Cup semifinals for the third consecutive time. Lauren Hemp also scored for the European champion, which now faces host Australia on Wednesday in Sydney for a place in its first World Cup final. Trailing for the first time in the tournament, the Lionesses, who are undefeated in 37 of their last 38 games, kept their composure and when Colombian keeper Catalina Perez fumbled and lost the ball on Russo’s shot, Hemp was there to poke it in from six yards out just before the halftime whistle. Eighteen-year-old Linda Caicedo, who was one of the most exciting players at the World Cup, had a last chance deep in extra time but shook her head after firing the ball over the bar.
