"When you have a player like Cristiana Girelli on the bench and you see that you can't actually score ... my choice was very simple," Italy coach Milena Bertolini said. After a slow start to the second half, Italy settled into their rhythm and looked more likely to score. Manuela Giuliano's free kick drifted over the crossbar before Giadda Greggi drew a smart stop from Correa in the 82nd minute. Argentina caused plenty of problems for Durante but could not manage a shot on target until Bonsegundo's free kick in the 94th minute. They next face South Africa on Friday in Dunedin, with both teams still searching for a first World Cup victory.

Their quest begins in Dunedin against Portugal, who are the highest ranked newcomers at this year's event at world number 21. But the focus ahead of their Group E opener was on the training conditions in New Zealand, with Netherlands coach Andries Jonker saying the facilities had been inadequate. "History is history and the future is the future, you can only live where we are now," Sweden coach Peter Gerhardsson said on Saturday. France reached the World Cup quarter-finals on home soil four years ago and will begin their campaign against Jamaica in Group F in Sydney with a clean slate under coach Herve Renard, with off-field issues finally behind them. Renard, who led Saudi Arabia to a group stage win over Argentina at the men's World Cup last year, replaced Corinne Diacre after key players refused to play under her and will hope to pull off another miracle by turning the team into world champions.

A yearbook photograph of Florida Governor and 2024 Republican presidential contender Ron DeSantis has been digitally altered to include a fabricated quote attributed to him.

Sean Clark, director of strategic communications at Pinellas County Schools, said in an email that the photo is from the Dunedin High School yearbook, “however there is no quote within the yearbook photo beneath Governor DeSantis’s photo nor any other student within the yearbook”.

CNN —A climate activist in New Zealand faces 10 years in jail after a court found her guilty of forgery for sending a fake letter to the speakers at an oil industry conference, telling them it had been postponed due to the climate crisis. She had been protesting outside oil conferences for years, but the 2019 PEPANZ conference was taking place in quite a small town and she was concerned few activists would be able to attend, she told CNN. Five days before the conference, she sent the letter by email, purporting to be from oil industry organizers canceling the event until further notice. PEPANZ organizers told speakers that the letter was fake and the conference went ahead. Three years later, after a trial in the Dunedin District Court, Penwarden was found guilty on Wednesday of two charges of creating and using a forged document.
