Women’s World Cup 2023 LIVE: Colombia shock Germany with last-gasp winner after New Zealand crash out

Manuela Vanegas headed a stoppage-time winner to give Colombia a stunning 2-1 upset victory over two-time champions Germany in one of the biggest shocks in Women’s World Cup history

In a thriller in Sydney, defender Vanegas powered a header home deep into injury time after German striker Alexandra Popp had seemingly snatched her side a point by converting an 89th-minute penalty to cancel out a simply stunning strike from Colombian teenager Linda Caicedo.

Caicedo, who gave her team a fright by collapsing in training on Thursday, had delighted the massed ranks of her compatriots in the 40,499 crowd with a goal of the highest quality in the 52nd minute and Colombia were ultimately good value for a win that inflicted a first group-stage defeat on Germany at a World Cup since 1995.

Earlier, New Zealand and Switzerland played out an underwhelming 0-0 stalemate, sending the co-hosts out of the tournament on goal difference and the Europeans through to the last 16 as Group A winners. Norway’s 6-0 thrashing of the Philippines in the other group game in Auckland put them level on four points with New Zealand but second on goal difference. The results meant the Football Ferns, who stunned Norway in their opening match before losing to the Philippines in their second, became the first Women’s World Cup hosts to exit in the group stage.

Women’s World Cup 2023: Brilliant Colombia cause huge shock with Germany win and co-hosts crash out

17:02 , Luke Baker

Colombia will celebrate their stunning upset victory over Germany at the Women’s World Cup but have no intention of resting on their laurels, assistant coach Angelo Marsiglia said after the 2-1 win.

Manuela Vanegas scored a dramatic last-gasp winner to put the South Americans top of Group H and all but secure their progress to the knockout stage of the tournament with an all-time great upset.

“We need to give this win to our whole country,” said Marsiglia. “After the game, we were overcome by emotions. Emotions were running high but we gathered in a circle on the pitch and we said ‘look, let’s enjoy this but keep our feet on the ground’. We will go step by step.”

Who do England women play next? World Cup fixtures and route to the final

15:40 , Luke Baker

Lauren James’ maiden World Cup goal was enough for England to maintain their 100 per cent record in Group D with a 1-0 victory over Denmark at the Sydney Football Stadium.

The Chelsea forward struck the sixth-minute opener, but England suffered a major blow after 38 minutes when midfielder Keira Walsh was stretchered off with an apparent knee injury and later appeared on the touchline using crutches.

James’ goal was England’s first from open play since April’s Finalissima at Wembley, while Denmark came within inches of a last-gasp leveller when Amalie Vangsgaard’s header clipped the post.

The Lionesses still have work to do to reach the last-16 after China overcame a first-half red card to defeat Haiti 1-0. England will top Group D and reach the knockout stages as long as they avoid defeat to the Asian champions.

Women’s football world rankings: Who could take No 1 at the World Cup?

15:09 , Luke Baker

The United States remain the team to beat ahead of the Women’s World Cup and the two-time defending champions remain number one in the Fifa rankings ahead of the tournament.

The USA are looking to become the first country to win three World Cups in a row and have held top spot since 2017.

But the tournament in Australia and New Zealand could bring a shake-up to the order. Europe is catching up and the likes of England, Germany, France and Spain will be coming for the USA’s crown.

Zambia come into the World Cup as the lowest-ranked team at the tournament, which is hosting 32 teams for the first time.

England provide Keira Walsh injury update in Women’s World Cup boost

14:15 , Luke Baker

England’s Keira Walsh did not suffer an anterior cruciate ligament injury against Denmark at the Women’s World Cup and could feature later in the tournament after the Lionesses confirmed the midfielder will remain with the squad.

Walsh was stretchered off in the Lionesses’ 1-0 win against Denmark on Friday and there were fears that the 26-year-old had become the latest star in women’s football to suffer an ACL tear – with England captain Leah Williamson and forward Beth Mead among several star names to be ruled out of the World Cup due to the injury.

The Barcelona midfielder was left on crutches after stretching for the ball and catching her studs on the turf, but a scan yesterday afternoon revealed that the injury was not as bad as it first looked and there was no serious ligament damage.

REPORT: Colombia stun Germany with last-gasp winner

13:06 , Luke Baker

Manuela Vanegas headed a stoppage-time winner to give Colombia a 2-1 upset victory over Germany just when the twice world champions thought they had saved a point in a thrilling Women’s World Cup clash at Sydney Football Stadium.

The defender powered the ball home from a corner eight minutes after German striker Alexandra Popp had converted a penalty to cancel out a stunning strike from Colombian teenager Linda Caicedo. Caicedo, who gave her team a fright by collapsing in training on Thursday, had delighted the massed ranks of her compatriots in the 40,499 crowd with a goal of the highest quality in the 52nd minute.

The Colombians tore into the match from the kick-off and the Germans looked rattled not only by their aggression but also by the deafening noise of their yellow-shirted fans. Colombia striker Mayra Ramirez headed a chance down and wide in the ninth minute and the South Americans continued to niggle the Germans with a dig to the ribs here and a flailing arm in the tackle there.

The corner was Germany’s major weapon in their opening 6-0 thrashing of Morocco but Colombia goalkeeper Catalina Perez came out confidently to gather the first ball swung in from the corner flag.

Germany forward Lina Magull had a good chance in the 21st minute but her swing at the ball made contact with nothing but air and Lena Oberdorf’s subsequent effort was blocked.

Popp, who scored two goals against the Moroccans, should have added to her tournament tally in the 42nd minute but blazed her volley high and wide from close range.

Colombia continued to launch the ball forward to their front players at every opportunity but it was not until seven minutes after the break that they were able to break the stalemate. Showing no sign of the nerves that her coach said were behind her collapse on Thursday, the 18-year-old Caicedo gathered the ball on the left edge of the box, cut back between two defenders and curled it into the top right-hand corner. The stadium exploded with noise as the diminutive teenager celebrated her second goal at the tournament, having become the youngest player to score in this World Cup with a similar effort in the 2-0 opening win over South Korea.

Germany continued to spurn what chances they created but, with two minutes left on the clock, Oberdorf was brought down in the box by Perez and Popp stepped up to thump the ball confidently into the net. However, on 97 minutes, left-back Vanegas found herself unmarked to placed a header perfectly into the corner and send the stadium wild.

The 27th-ranked Colombians now need only a draw against Morocco in their final Group H match to be certain of reaching the last 16, while Germany are still likely to progress if they beat South Korea in their last fixture.

This is well worth watching, just for the celebrations alone. The moment Manuela Vanegas and Colombia stunned Germany deep into added time. Beautiful

THEY’VE DONE IT! Maybe the biggest shock in Women’s World Cup history as Colombia beat two-time winners Germany 2-1 thanks to Manuela Vanegas’ injury-time header.

It’s incredible and fully deserved for the South Americans. Germany have lost in the group stage of a major tournament for the first time since 1995! Just remarkable.

90+10 mins: There’s a delay in the closing moments here as Jorelyn Carabali has gone down hard after colliding with Alexandra Popp and is receiving treatment.

90+7 mins: GOAL! OH MY WORD - COLOMBIA HAVE DONE IT!

This is incredible, absolutely unbelievable. With the final kick of the game, Colombia have stunned Germany and scored the unlikeliest of winners.

Left-back Manuela Vanegas, perhaps the smallest player on the pitch, is unmarked on the penalty spot from a corner and rises high to put a perfectly-placed header into the corner. The Colombians go wild and Germany look stunned. In the 97th minute they’ve caused maybe the biggest upset in Women’s World Cup history.

90+5 mins: Colombia have been brilliant today and this has been a superb second half. Only a minute of injury-time left now.

89 mins: GOAL! No mistake from Alexandra Popp from the spot. She goes straight down the middle and Perez dives to her left. The equaliser Germany desperately needed.

It’s harsh on Colombia, who have been brilliant. More relief than elation for the Germans.

This is well worth a watch. Linda Caicdeo has scored one of the goals of the tournament to give Colombia the lead over Germany. Simply stunning

Latest score: Germany 0-1 Colombia

11:45 , Luke Baker

52 mins: GOAL! OH MY WORD - THAT IS STUNNING FROM LINDA CAICDEO!

The Colombian youngster has lit up this tournament and she’s done it again. The ball falls to her on the left of the box, she jinks away from two German defenders in close attention and curls a sublime finish into the far corner with her right foot. It’s a moment of magic and Colombia are upsetting the two-time World Cup winners.

Latest score: Germany 0-0 Colombia

11:42 , Luke Baker

50 mins: Caicedo and Ramirez link up well again for Colombia but Caicedo’s final touch is a bit heavy and the ball runs out for a goal-kick.

Latest score: Germany 0-0 Colombia

11:22 , Luke Baker

HALF-TIME! Colombia will be perfectly happy with that first half. The underdogs have stood up to Germany physically and the European side’s frustration has been visibly growing with every strong tackle.

Colombia have also shown plenty of intent in attack, especially with Linda Caicedo running at the Germans and linking play with her teammates. An intriguing second half awaits.

Latest score: Germany 0-0 Colombia

11:14 , Luke Baker

42 mins: CHANCE! Alexandra Popp should score really. Good work by Oberdorf with another clever ball and Popp is unmarked at the back post but her volley is skewed well over.

Has to be on target and she probably should score. Popp is exactly the player Germany would want in that position but a let-off for Colombia.

Latest score: Germany 0-0 Colombia

11:12 , Luke Baker

40 mins: There’s a roar of excitement from the crowd every time Linda Caicedo gets the ball and runs at the German defence. One such run makes space for Ramirez, who takes aim from the edge of the box but shoots straight at Frohms.

Colombia defend quite narrowly generally but they’ve pressed with enthusiasm and have maintained discipline well to deny Germany so far. They’ll be perfectly happy with 0-0 as we head towards the break.

Latest score: Germany 0-0 Colombia

10:53 , Luke Baker

21 mins: It’s more great build-up play by Germany. An exquisite reverse pass from Oberdorf puts them in a really dangerous position but Magull scuffs her shot with defenders swarming and Colombia scramble away.

This has been really engaging stuff so far and Colombia’s physicality in defence is starting to rattle Germany slightly

Latest score: Germany 0-0 Colombia

10:50 , Luke Baker

15 mins: Attacking intent from Colombia from the off here. They’ve been a breath of fresh air and colour in the tournament so far. They’re holding their own against Germany so far.

Latest score: Germany 0-0 Colombia

10:38 , Luke Baker

5 mins: Underway in the final match of the day as Germany and Colombia do battle in Group H. Both teams won their openers - the Germans thumping Morocco and the Colombians surprising South Korea 2-0.

Two-time World Cup winners Germany are one of the favourites for the tournament but underdogs Colombia, who boast arguably the most exciting young player in world football - Linda Caicedo - in their team, will fancy upsetting the apple cart. The Sydney crowd fully behind the South Americans so far.

Report: Switzerland 0-0 New Zealand

10:14 , Luke Baker

New Zealand and Switzerland played out an underwhelming 0-0 stalemate in the Women’s World Cup, sending the co-hosts out of the tournament on goal difference and the Europeans through to the last 16 as Group A winners.

Norway’s 6-0 thrashing of the Philippines in the other group game in Auckland put them level on four points with New Zealand but second on goal difference. The results meant the Football Ferns, who stunned Norway in their opening match before losing to the Philippines in their second, became the first Women’s World Cup hosts to exit in the group stage.

Roared on by a near-capacity crowd of 25,947 at the indoor Dunedin Stadium, New Zealand lacked nothing in effort but could not find the goal they needed to progress.

Switzerland started the match on the front foot and midfielder Ramona Bachmann skipped past several defenders before her shot was blocked, but they were unable to keep the momentum going while New Zealand gradually upped the tempo. Jacqui Hand and Olivia Chance both hit the post while Katie Bowen’s shot was blocked and looked more likely to score.

Switzerland looked more comfortable after the break, with Seraina Piubel slicing a left-footed shot wide off the mark before being ruled offside, while the hosts struggled in the final third. Malia Steinmetz’s strike from the edge of the penalty area was saved as New Zealand became increasingly frantic in their efforts - goalkeeper Victoria Esson headed wide in the closing minutes - but Switzerland held firm and saw out the draw.

Switzerland and Norway will face either Spain or Japan, who play their Group C decider on Monday, for a place in the quarter-finals.

50 mins: GOAL! Norway are on cruise control. A cross fizzed into the Philippines box from the right and sliding defender Alicia Barker can only turn into her own net.

She watches in horror as the ball loops in but she had to go for it, with a Norway striker lurking at the back post. It’s hard to see Norway messing it up from here, so it appears to be a shootout between New Zealand and Switzerland for the other qualification spot. The hosts need a win.

48 mins: A strong start to the second half from Switzerland as Ramona Bachmann twists and turns in the box but can’t get a clear shot on goal and New Zealand scramble the ball away.

Switzerland look in good shape to top the group currently but a goal from New Zealand would not only send the Football Ferns through but knock the Swiss out as it currently stands (with Norway handily beating Philippines). So much to play for here

HALF-TIME! What a half for Norway. They’ve blitzed Philippines to lead 3-0 thanks to two goals from Haug and one from Graham Hansen. That has leapfrogged them to second in Group A. Hosts New Zealand have 45 minutes to find the goal that would send them through.

Morocco stun South Korea to claim first ever Women's World Cup victory

08:42 , Luke Baker

A result from earlier today, where Women’s World Cup history was made:

Debutants Morocco claimed their first-ever victory at the Women’s World Cup with a 1-0 win over South Korea, all but confirming the Asian side’s exit.

Morocco are 55 rungs below South Korea in the women’s rankings, but the African side made an early breakthrough with their first-ever World Cup goal in the sixth minute from striker Ibtissam Jraidi. Hanane Ait El Haj whipped in a cross from the right and Jraidi dived forward to make contact with a deft glancing header that went in at the far post.

Park Eun-sun nearly levelled with a diving header of her own at the other end but the forward saw her effort go agonisingly wide of the post, much to the relief of Khadija Er-Rmichi in Morocco’s goal.

Er-Rmichi saw Germany find the net six times in their group opener, but she was hardly tested by the South Koreans, who failed to have a shot on target and struggled to make inroads into the final third as the Moroccan defence stood firm.

Morocco defender Nouhaila Benzina, who became the first player to wear a headscarf at the Women’s World Cup, made crucial interventions, while she almost scored from a set-piece when she volleyed a snapshot over the bar. She even took one for the team when she deliberately clipped Ji So-yun, who was racing through on goal on a counter- attack with support, accepting a yellow card without protest.

South Korea’s Casey Phair nearly equalised late in the game but the 16-year-old, who became the youngest player to take the field in Women’s World Cup history in their opener, fired wide to leave them bottom of the group.

Morocco are level with Germany and Colombia with three points ahead of their game later on Sunday. South Korea have zero points and will be eliminated if Germany avoid defeat.

Hansen apologised and was restored to the line-up for this crunch game and has just made it 3-0 to Norway over Philippines. She smashes into the bottom corner from 25 yards and the Scandinavians are firmly entrenched in second spot now.

Hosts New Zealand now need to better that result to qualify ahead of them but are being frustrated by table-topping Switzerland still.

The battle for Group A qualification is underway and all four teams can still make it through.

Norway have started like a train against Philippines and Sophie Roman Haug has just headed in her second goal for them to lead 2-0 after 20 minutes. That means they go from the bottom of the group to qualifying in second as we stand.

But the big news is that, as it stands, hosts New Zealand are going out. They’re still 0-0 with Switzerland, who would finish top of the pile on five points, but New Zealand are being pipped by Norway to second on goal difference now. The Football Ferns need a goal.

Women’s World Cup tips: Four of the best bets for Sunday’s fixtures

Good morning

07:00 , Jamie Braidwood

It’s crunch time at the Women’s World Cup as co-hosts New Zealand battle for a place in the last-16 on the final round of fixtures in Group A.

The Football Ferns will qualify for the knockout stages of the World Cup for the first team if they beat Switzerland, but a draw may also be enough if Norway defeat the Philippines.

Norway come into the final day bottom of Group A after a tumultuous campaign so far, and they must beat the Philippines to have any chance of reaching the knockout stages, while hoping results elsewhere go their way.

Hege Riise, who controversially dropped Caroline Graham Hansen for the 0-0 draw against Switzerland, will be without star forward Ada Hegerberg due to a groin injury.

Germany will look to make two wins out of two in Group H as the two-time World Cup winners take on Colombia, while Morocco and South Korea go in search of their first points.
