England have enjoyed a stellar campaign thus far, capturing the hearts of a nation on their road to the semi-final of the tournament. However, in the semi-finals, they will face an Australia side who have enjoyed a similarly impressive tournament.

Sarina Wiegman's road to this stage of the World Cup began last month with a narrow group stage victory over Haiti. Further wins over Denmark and China helped England book a place in the final 16.

A dramatic win over Nigeria via penalties took the Lionesses to the quarter-finals and they advanced to the penultimate stage by seeing off Colombia. Next up for England is host nation Australia and the winner will take on Spain in the final.
