Dutch set the pace
The Netherlands have opened up a lead on Canada after that victory over Cameroon earlier. Can the North Americans win to join the Dutch at the summit of Group D and add their names to the last-16 line-up?MP | W | D | L | GF | GA | +/- | Pts | |

Football Ferns coach Tom Sermanni is keeping the same starting 11 that played against the Netherlands on Tuesday, but there is a slight tweak to the formation. Liv Chance, who made her World Cup debut on the left wing a few days ago, will start on the right. Betsy Hassett moves from the right wing to the left.

Even the great
Even Pellerud is the only coach to have led teams into the FIFA Women’s World Cup semi-finals on three occasions. Having guided Norway to silver and gold in its first two editions, he masterminded victories over Japan and China PR which saw Canada reach the last four for the first and only time in 2003.

Some changes to the Canada line-up, with Jade Riviere - one of the youngest members of the team - coming into the side and Ashley Lawrence replacing Allysha Chapman. The forward and midfield remains largely unchanged, with captain Christine Sinclair and Jessie Fleming at the forefront of a 4-4-2 formation.

We looked back to when New Zealand won their first Women's World Cup point with an amazing comeback - and celebrated as only they know how.
