I would even say that it is the prize for the talent of this team," winning coach Reynald Pedros told reporters. Colombia topped the group with six points, bettering runners-up Morocco on goal difference, while Germany and South Korea depart the tournament. Morocco, who were thumped 6-0 by Germany in their opener before beating South Korea 1-0, move on to meet France in Adelaide and Colombia play Jamaica in Melbourne on Tuesday. A frenzied finish saw end-to-end action, but the Arab nation held on to continue their fairytale start to their first World Cup campaign.

The debutants bounced back from their mauling with a 1-0 win over South Korea and, in dramatic fashion in Perth on Thursday, followed up with an identical scoreline to upset Group H winners Colombia. To join the South American team in the knockouts, Morocco needed to win and hope the highly fancied Germans did not beat 17th-ranked South Korea in Brisbane. "We were praying, waiting for the result to come out of the Germany and Korea game. "I was very pleased because the players understood tonight they can play the best players in the world. "This is a showcase for the women's game, for the Moroccans back home and this is such a beautiful display that we're putting on here."

The result ends a long drought for the Danes, who last advanced to the knockout stage in 1995. After defeating China 6-1, England topped Group D and face Nigeria in Brisbane on Monday, while runners-up Denmark meet Australia in Sydney. "I'm so proud of the girls and of the team that we made it through the group stages, it's been a long time since a Danish team did that in a World Cup," Harder told reporters. Denmark started with a bang and remained undeterred after a third-minute goal by defender Simone Boye was ruled offside by VAR. Haiti end their first World Cup campaign winless from three games.

"It's a long time since we came here, first of all to qualify for a World Cup but now we're also playing the round of 16," the 30-year-old told reporters. "It's big for us and that's why I'm so proud of the whole team but, of course, we're hungry for more." It was a sentiment shared by Harder, a former team mate of Kerr's at Chelsea. The Danes can take heart from the impeccable form of their own captain, who earned her maiden World Cup goal with a 21st minute penalty against Haiti. Denmark forward Signe Bruun fouled Haiti goalkeeper Kerly Theus' outside the box and amidst the chaos substitute Mille Gejl's cross from the right was guided home by Harder.
