Women's World Cup 2023: How to watch the Spain vs. Sweden semifinals game
In a big shock to the 2023 Women's World Cup, the USWNT is officially out of the running. But that doesn’t mean the action on the field has slowed down at all.

Since Japan's elimination in the quarterfinals, every team headed to the semifinals is without a world cup trophy — what does that mean? No matter the outcome of Tuesday's Spain vs. Sweden game, or Wednesday morning's Australia vs. England match, the winner of the 2023 Women's World Cup will be making history.
