It’s do or die time at the FIFA Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. We’ve already seen big teams like Canada leave the tournament, and the other co-hosts New Zealand just couldn’t find the telling goal to put themselves into the knockout rounds.

In this Round of 16, we still have plenty of favourites who could easily find themselves out of the tournament or in it for another round. While seemingly “underdog” teams will look to continue their journey in the World Cup, no matter who they face.

Knowing that whatever result happens now determines your fate at the World Cup sets up all sorts of narratives as we hit the business end of the tournament.
