Fifa drops Visit Saudi sponsorship for tournament, or maybe there was none to start with if you believe Infantino.

Norway are ranked twelfth and New Zealand are ranked 26th. A big win indeed.

I can't see them beating Switzerland. They are probably not going to progress.

Though a draw and a 1-0 win for Norway would allow NZ to qualify as well.

Hence my use of the word "probably".

If they beat Canada, they will go through. They can also go through with a draw, but only if Ireland beat Nigeria by two goals.

New Zealand can also get through with a draw as long as The Philippines don't beat Norway.

Another narrow win for England, played a bit better at the start, but also have lost Walsh to what looks like a bad injury.

A draw is sufficient to go through, or if the other match today ends in a draw, we go through.

The description on the BBC website suggests Walsh has done her knee, so it's probably the end of the tournament for her.

Good performance from Sweden, though the whole concept of a corner seemed to confuse the Italians.

Walsh's injury not ACL, and she might be able to play in thrlebknockout stages.

New Zealand out. Under UEFA rules where head to head is the first criterion, they would have gone through.

Interesting that none of the pre tournament favourites are firing on all cylinders yet.

Spain are still showing as second favourites despite losing 4-0 to Japan yesterday . I suspect it's not a very liquid market.
