The Women's World Cup 2023 Group A was full of surprises. Norway, who are regarded as one of the pre-tournament favourites to go all the way, were rocked by co-hosts New Zealand, falling to a narrow 1-0 defeat on the opening day.
After a frustrating 0-0 draw against Switzerland, they needed to win their final group game with a good margin. And boy, did they deliver! Sophie Roman Haug was on fire, bagging a well-taken hat-trick as Norway hammered the Philippines 6-0 in Auckland to leapfrog New Zealand into second on goal difference.
It was a fantastic rout to put their rocky start to the World Cup behind them, and restore some vital confidence ahead of the knockout stages.
Tournament debutants, the Philippines, finished bottom of the group despite recording a famous first World Cup win over New Zealand, who become the first hosts to exit the Women's World Cup at the group stage after being held to a draw by group winners Switzerland in their final game.

Group B of the Women's World Cup shaped up to be one of the most intriguing groups of the tournament. Co-hosts Australia opened the group with a comfortable single-goal victory against World Cup debutants Republic of Ireland.
History was made when Ireland captain Katie McCabe scored her country's first-ever Women's World Cup goal. The 27-year-old Arsenal midfielder's rare 'Olimpico' goal gave Ireland a surprising lead over the reigning Olympic gold medalists Canada, but the Maple Leafs came roaring back to win the game 2-1, shattering the underdogs hopes of making it through to the knockout stages.
Regardless, there was all to play for in Group B on group stage matchday three as Nigeria booked their spot in the Round of 16 as runners-up after drawing 0-0 with the Republic of Ireland on July 31, while Australia also progressed to the knockout phase as group winners after thumping Canada 4-0 on the same day.

The lop-sided Group C of the WWC 2023 has panned out as predicted.
Despite the off-field drama a few months ago, when some of their star players rebelled against coach Jorge Vilda, Spain cruised into the last 16 of the Women's World Cup with a game to spare thanks to a 3-0 win over Costa Rica and 5-0 thrashing of Zambia.
Current Ballon d'Or Feminin holder Alexia Putellas looks to be in fine form as Spain hopes to go the whole hog this time around. Funnily enough! La Roja left their training base in Palmerston North for Wellington a few days before the final group game against Japan due to boredom.
Japan have made an auspicious start as they look to emulate their historic run from 2011 when they stunned the world and won the World Cup. They equalled Spain's result against Zambia, beat Costa Rica 2-1 to secure early qualification to the next round, before topping the group with a 4-0 victory over Spain in what was essentially a dead-rubber clash. Zambia beat Costa Rica 2-1 to record their first-ever win in the World Cup finals.

Despite missing key players — including captain Leah Williamson — through injury ahead of the World Cup, pre-tournament favourites England have got the job done and secured their qualification to the next round with a group game left to play.
The wins against Haiti and Denmark came by a narrow 1-0 scoreline, with Lauren James making the headlines for her winning goal against Denmark. However, Sarina Wiegman's side absolutely blew away China 6-1 in their final group game to prove their credentials.
The Lionesses are looking recreate their Euro 2022 heroics and become champions of the world for the first time, but they were recently handed a big setback as midfield star Keira Walsh picked up a serious-looking knee injury last time out. There is still hope that the Barcelona midfielder will be able to recover for the knockout stages.
Denmark also advanced for the last-16 with relative ease ultimately, edging out China for the second place, while Haiti finished rock-bottom with zero points.
