Germany's defeat at the hands of Colombia has shaken up Gracenote's prediction a fair bit - to the benefit of  - who go from losing in the round of 16 to now being semi-finalists - and who are now predicted to reach the final.

Because they randomly pick a 50/50 while first they thought Germany had a 56/44 to go through against France.

 

There are too many variables for a prediction like this. It does totally not account for the likelihood of going through in the previous round.

Anyway, the girls looking grim in defense. When it is once, you might think it is on purpose. When it happens thrice.. no way that is on purpose.

Group B to finish next and apparently Canada are rolling with Sinclair in the "11" while Sam Kerr is only on the bench for Australia.
