[Sports News]The Women’s Football World Cup continues to stage the final round of group matches today (1st). The current European champion England will face the Asian champion China in Group D. England’s rising star Lauren James, who only scored two goals in the past two games, handed in two goals and three assists, beating China 6-1 and confirming the qualification for the first place. China, which appeared in the final week eight times, suffered the biggest defeat in history and was eliminated in the group stage for the first time. It only relied on Wang Shuang to score two goals and twelve yards in three games.

Before the game, China and Denmark, which ranked third in Group D, had the same points. However, due to their poor performance in the match, they will have to score better than Denmark, which is facing Haiti, to qualify. China’s captain Wang Shanshan will continue to be selected for this battle. Wu Chengshu, who has been exiled to Australia, Yang Lina from La Liga, and the absolute main force Wang Shuang are also in the team. England’s main midfielder, Keira Walsh, was injured. He was absent for this game and changed to a 352 formation, with Jessica Carter as the right center and Lauren James in the center of the midfield. .

China, which must have a point in the bag, lost only 4 minutes into the game. At that time, Lauren Hemp made a cross from the left. The Chinese defender made a clearance and was topped by Lauren James. Alessia Russo shot inside the penalty area. The near column is 1:0. England, which had only scored one goal each in the past two games, finally made a breakthrough in this game. In 27 minutes, captain Millie Bright once again grabbed the ball in the backcourt.
Six minutes before this goal, Denmark took the lead with another 12-yard goal from captain Pernille Harder, putting China in a desperate situation. Four minutes before the end of the half, England opened up again with a beautiful free throw. James responded to Alex Greenwood’s cross pass from outside the penalty area and scored the first time. The Chelsea starlet almost netted again in stoppage time, but left-footed Lucy Bronze was overturned by VAR for offside.

Eight minutes after China switched sides, they had their first shot on target. Wu Chengshu’s long-range shot was only saved by Mary Earps. The Asian Cup champions made a handball in the small penalty area of Bangsi in the next corner kick. Wang Shuang shot into twelve yards to catch up. However, James’ brilliant performance extinguished China’s hope of qualifying. In 65 minutes, he responded to Qatar’s cross and scored 4:1 with his left foot. China, which was almost certain to be out of the game, made a serious mistake in 77 minutes. Goalkeeper Zhu Yu made a misjudgment when he came out to make a clearance. Chloe Kelly responded with James’ long pass and shot into the empty goal. Rachel Daly, the current women’s Premier League sharpshooter, scored again 6 minutes before the end of the game, securing a 6-1 victory for England, tying the record for the biggest victory in the final week when they defeated Argentina in 2007.
England, which is the first to qualify, will face Nigeria in the round of 16, and Denmark, which has won a small victory, will face Australia, one of the hosts.
