Received two out of two for the English. Opposed to the Danes, this Friday, the Three Lionesses confirmed their status as favorites in this group D by winning 1-0, as in the first match against Haiti. With this second victory, Alessia Russo’s teammates are at the top of the standings. Qualification is therefore getting closer for the 2022 European champions, who will only need a point in the last match against the Chinese.
For the Danes, it will be necessary to make a result against Haiti, next Tuesday, to hope for a qualification in the next round. China, third before this second day, took advantage of this hitch in Denmark, dominating (1-0) the Haitians. Reduced to ten for more than an hour, after the expulsion of Zhang Rui (29th), the Chinese managed to grab the three points despite everything. Thanks to a penalty, perfectly hit on the wrong foot by Wang Shuang (74th), they come back up to the Danes, before facing England in the last match.
It gets complicated for Argentina and South Africa
Earlier this Friday, Argentina and South Africa were neutralized. The draw (2-2) between these two nations does not help anyone. The South Africans however led 2-0 thanks to goals from Motlhalo (30th) and Kgatlana (66th) before the Argentines reacted by Braun (74th) and Nunez (79th). Pointing to the last two places in the standings, in this group G, with only one point in two games, Banyana Banyana (3rd) and Albiceleste (4th) are awaiting the result of Sweden – Italy, which will take place this Saturday, to find out more about their fate in this World Cup.
