The highly anticipated semifinal matchup between tournament co-hosts Australia Women and the defending European champions England Women will take place on Wednesday at Stadium Australia.
The Matildas defeated France in a thrilling penalty shootout to go to the Women's World Cup 2023 semifinals, while the Lionesses defeated Colombia in their last-eight match.
Australia is already experiencing World Cup fever as Tony Gustavsson's team overcame a rocky beginning to make it to the final four.
Australia's campaign finally found traction in their third group game as they thrashed the Olympic champions Canada 4-0. After barely defeating the Republic of Ireland and falling to Nigeria in their first two games, Australia's campaign finally gained traction.
After Denmark was eliminated in the round of 16, Australia played France in a nerve-wracking quarterfinal match that ended in penalties due to a tense goalless draw.
The ensuing shootout was tense, but after 20 attempts, the Matildas were declared the winners, securing their ticket in the first-ever Women's World Cup finals.
Australia will draw encouragement from the fact that they are the only side to defeat England since Sarina Wiegman took over after registering a 2-0 friendly victory when the two teams met in April. Australia is now just two games away from winning their home event.
England has demonstrated tremendous tenacity and resilience to eke out the results necessary to go to the semifinals of a major tournament for a fifth time in a row.
The Lionesses displayed their strength to finish the group round with a dominant 6-1 victory over China after edging out Haiti and Denmark 1-0.
Despite playing second fiddle to Nigeria for the bulk of the last-16 match, Wiegman's team maintained composure to prevail on penalties and set up a challenging quarterfinal matchup with Colombia, the 2022 Copa America finalists.
In order to defeat Colombia, the Lionesses had to show their tenacity. Lauren Hemp and Alessia Russo's goals helped England come back from a goal down to win 2-1, ensuring that they will play in the Women's World Cup semi-finals for the third time in a row.
While England hasn't dropped a competitive match under Wiegman, despite losing to Australia in a friendly earlier this year, they will aim to draw motivation from that remarkable record when they play in Sydney in front of a hostile crowd.
