The defending champions of the FIFA Women’s World Cup, the United States will look to seal their place in the last-16. A win against the Portuguese side will see Vlatko Andonovski’s side through the first threshold of the tournament. The Selecao das Quinas also have aspirations of reaching the knockout rounds after picking up maximum points on Matchday Two. After beginning their first Women’s World Cup finals appearance with a 1-0 defeat to the Netherlands, Portugal kept their last-16 hopes alive with a win over Vietnam on Thursday. Talking about their league standings, the United States are up top in Group E. While, Portugal is in the third position of Group E. This will be the first meeting of both the teams in FIFA World Cup tournament.
Portugal will head into the final game in third position in Group E with one point separating them from the Netherlands and the USA. They will secure a place in the knockout rounds if they cause a major upset and beat the USA. While a draw will only be enough if the Netherlands suffer an unlikely defeat to Vietnam. The USA on the other hand, are coming after a resounding victory over Vietnam. Having reached the knockout rounds at all eight previous editions of the Women’s World Cup, USA knows that they only need a point from Tuesday’s fixture to continue that impressive record.
