Her Colombia teammates followed in her wake, eating up the ground in the rush to close the distance, to catch her to celebrate the goal that would soon take the country past Jamaica and into the first Women’s World Cup quarterfinal in Colombia’s history. Caicedo’s emergence at this World Cup has not exactly been a surprise. She has long been earmarked as the next big thing: for Colombia, for South America, and increasingly for women’s soccer as a whole. She played in the under-17 World Cup — Colombia finished second — and the under-20 World Cup, reaching the quarterfinals, almost contiguously. This tournament is, in effect, her third World Cup in a year.

Women’s World Cup 2023: Live scores, fixtures, results, tables and top scorersCNN —England’s 1-0 win over Denmark at the Women’s World Cup on Friday was overshadowed by a serious-looking injury sustained by its star midfielder Keira Walsh who had to be stretchered off in the first half. Williamson, Mead and Walsh played major roles in England’s Euro 2022 title win. James and her teammates celebrates England's goal against Denmark. Knowing a win would secure its spot in the knockout phase of the tournament, Denmark ramped up the pressure on England’s goal, but was unable to find a way past Mary Earps. Initially China midfielder Zhang Rui was given a yellow card for a challenge on Sherly Jeudy.

Their 11 shots on target were the most in a World Cup game since 2011, and Alessia Russo's five shots on net were the most by an England player since then. Denmark eked out a 1-0 victory over China in the opener of their first World Cup appearance in 16 years on a late goal by Amalie Vangsgaard, joining the Lionesses atop Group D with three points apiece. "First time in a World Cup and having a performance like that, I think the other two countries (Denmark and China) are going to really struggle with them," Wiegman said. Considering the gang violence and political collapse plaguing that country, just qualifying for the World Cup - they were one of the last three teams to clinch a spot - was victory in itself. "We weren't sure how we were going to play, but we were able to pull it out of the bag.
