Even before the match started I know Spain will win the match those guys are not joking at all and Spain is always full of very talented players the only thing that was stopping Spain from winning was the defense of Sweden was tight and also the goalkeeper was also good because there were a lot of blocked shots from Spain, the game ended 2:1 with Spain winning after Sweden equalized 88 minutes of the game and Spain still won, women FIFA world cup is looking more interesting than that of the boys.  and I see them being more focused and dedicated a lot of teams fucked up doing the men's world cup tournament.

The first half of the game was very quiet. But the fact that 2 teams have completed 3 goals in only 10 minutes in the last stage of the game is really surprising. There was a lot of excitement in the game from 80 to the last minute.  Spain had another chance to score in the 90+5 minutes but were unsuccessful.
However, Spain eventually won the semi-finals by 2-1 goals.

Congratulations Spain 🌹🌹

I think it will go to extra time and even a penalty shootout because it's difficult for both teams to score goals, but it's not and drama starts in the last 10 minutes of normal time, substitute players Salma Celeste gave hope to Spain as well as Swedish substitute players Lina Hurtig who provided assist to the equalizer the scores, but finally Spain managed to get back to leading with a very accurate shot from outside the pinalty area, there is something surprising because the success of Spain according to predictions.
This match was quite interesting to watch until the last minute, and tomorrow's second semi-final will certainly have drama again.

LOL.. what is going on? 3 goals in the last 10 minutes and now Spain has once again regained the lead. It's 90+4, and Spain is leading by 2-1. Olga Carmona scored the second goal for Spain to put them ahead. Three minutes remain in this match and it needs to be seen whether there is enough time remaining for Sweden to score the equalizer yet again. Spain women has become very defensive now and just want to survive for the next 3-4 minutes. Quite a few delaying tactics from them, and I am sure that the referee is keeping note of it.

-----------------------

Final result: Spain wins by 2-1.

Spain will win and proceed to the finals. Sweden may win by a stroke of luck like it happened during their game with Japan. People think that Sweden is the underdog because they beat Japan that had earlier beat Spain. Whatever makes them happy. Let me just tell you all that the finals of this FIFA Women World Cup is going to be between Spain and England. And Spain is going to win. I'll come back to this.

1^st semifinal is close to the end. As the majority predicted match is going so close, Spain took the lead with the goal in the 81^st minute. Following the goal Sweden have made a goal in the 88^th minute. Match is getting interesting at the last moment. Comeback goal from Spain in the 89^th minute, and now with the goal from Carmona the lead is 2-1.

Nothing unusual in the match between Sweden and Spain so far. Spain were the favorites and they are leading by 1-0 with 2 minutes to go. They deserved to be in the final, and seems like they will reach there. Sweden trying their best for the equalizer, but the Spanish defense is just too strong for them. It was Salma Celeste Paralluelo who scored the lone goal so far in this match. She is just 19-years old and plays for FC Barcelona Femení. 

-----------------------

WTF? Sweden just scored the equalizer. Rebecka Blomqvist scored the goal for Sweden to put them at 1-1. Now in all probability the match will go to extra time, and then to penalty shootout. Even more drama during the women's world cup!!!

Not sure if we watching the same Women’s World Cup 2023   You saying Asian teams teams managed to reach the semis when the last I recall was Japan that was knocked out in the quarter finals!
And just so you know, teams left in the semis are Spain , Sweden, Australia and England ...Which tells me that you might have counted Australia to be part of Asia which i know it isn't ...

---

Meanwhile in the first semis match,  Spain and Sweden still playing a goalless game with less than 10 minutes to go in normal time, and from the look of things, this game could be going to penalties as no clear goal scoring chances have been created.

Previously the Asian region had 2 favorite teams Japan and Australia unfortunately Japan was kicked out in the quarter final and Sweden who advanced to the semifinals who will face Spain, currently Spain vs Australia are fighting to get a ticket to the final and the first half ended goalless I'm afraid the match will end goalless if that happens then Sweden has the chance to qualify for the final. Australia is also not in an advantageous position against England is not easy because England is one of the teams that is on fire, but fortunately Australia already has the experience of beating England last April so they have to use the same strategy to win.

If all matches end goalless then I predict Sweden and Australia will go to the final I think both teams have more ability through penalties like Sweden has many players with high accuracy in shooting one of them is Amanda Ilestedt who is in 3rd place on the top score board while Australia has a formidable goalkeeper reliable in penalty shootouts.

First half time is over But both teams are playing normally. Neither team can take the ball into the penalty area. As relaxed as the match was, I have never seen such a relaxed game in any other semi-final match. However, Spain has a lot of supporters and most people consider Spain to be the most likely to win the match.  But Spain is not showing much excitement. After some break the 2nd half of the game started still it is not clear which team will win the semi final.  It looks like the decision will be decided by penalty shootout

I am not really familiar with  FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 but excited when checking on sport website has asian national teams success managed until semifinal stage. Although not really favorite for becoming the champion but optimistic with Australian women national teams lead to final stage against England. Based on appearance on group stage until semifinal, Australia women national team success 3 of 5 games and get loss one match in group stage.

England women national teams have impressive performance in FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 winning all matches except get draw against Nigeria, its difficult chance for predicting who is the winner between Australia or England.

10 minutes have passed into the first semi-final between Spain and Sweden and so far it is Spain that looks to be having the upper hand. No attempts at goal so far. Today's match is quiet difficult to predict (although Spain maybe the favorites). Tomorrow's match is a bit easier, since England will be the overwhelming favorites. I would love to see Australia in the final, but winning against England is not that easy. But Australia already has a few upsets to their name and during the QF match they destroyed France. 

The game between Spain vs Sweden is about to go on with the favorite being Spain but this is going to be a hard knock to crack.
I believe the Sweden women won't let Spain get pass them that easy and they (Sweden) can even get a win in this encounter.
Since there meetings Spain have never beaten Sweden but can it be a different outcome in today's game? Only time will tell.
IMO I still see these two teams going into extra-time.

Yes, I agree with that and you said something relevant.
None of the teams were champions of a world cup, they will do everything to achieve this feat.
Sweden is a dangerous team, they managed to eliminate the USA and also Japan, but on the other hand Spain is also having an excellent performance.
I have no doubt, it will be a fierce and competitive game between these teams, but I believe Sweden has a better chance of winning.

I don't think Spain will escape in this semi-finals, because Sweden has potential squads that will make the match difficult for Spain strikers to score a single goal from this match, because Sweden defenders are mighty to secure the goalpost through out the match. Based on their last match, showed that Sweden will not allow penalty shootout to occur than to use their possible tools to achieve a goal that will bring victory at the end which will be the wish of Sweden Because they are not good in penalty shootout. This match it will going to be a tough match in the beginning but Sweden will defeat Spain 1-0 before the end of the match.

The vast majority of people that are watching this world cup is because there's a huge amount of push to advertise this event. Someone wants to make this tournament earn more money, so they are promoting it like crazy.

Many people that I've talked to while watching a game don't even know any of the players, and they don't really care about it. It's just the current hype really.

And I don't think this interest will continue after the advertisement runs dry.

Whereas with the World Cup, you don't even need advertisement for people to want to pay for a highly priced ticket for example. It's just night and day.

I thought the same as you, I supported Spain at first but after watching Sweden's struggle to reach the semifinals then I thought of something else, sometimes in semifinals surprises can happen as happened in France vs Australia a few days ago when Australia knocked out France on penalties, it is possible that Sweden could do the same like when they beat USA. In regular time I would have chosen Spain but if it had to go to penalties I would have gone with Sweden because they already have previous experience.

This match will start in 4 hours most of the bets went to Spain we can check it based on the available odds Spain @2.19 vs @3.45 Sweden I will not choose one of them my prediction is lower total goals under 2.5 goals however in the semifinals each team will play more carefully unless they scored a quick goal in the first minute maybe the situation could change.

Well, unfortunately the Colombian team was left out, and now things in this world championship are taking a different turn, they took France out, which is one of the teams that I thought was going to reach the final, so this is something that I always It goes to indicate that we are witnessing a women's world where the level of soccer in some countries has increased remarkably, many believed that the USA was going to win this World Cup, I knew not, however I felt a little sad because the only South American team that They took it out, but you have to see that the English play very beautifully, it's nice to see these women play, the way they do it is spectacular, I like to see them.

Spanish cohesion to be tested by determined Sweden

Well it's not or nothing, but I see more posiobobladdes to Sweden than to Spain, Spain has endless chances of winning, I don't deny it, but I think Sweden is a pretty strong team and what I see in these girls is that They are not afraid of anyone, they go out to play as if they were playing in their backyard, and that is one of the things that I like about soccer that they do, however, as I said, they are in a semi that any pthing It can happen, they can't leave everything to chance, they have to make sure, these girls have a very good way of playing, I think many have liked it, also Sweden in both the men's and women's teams do things very well.

Whichever team will go to the final and who manages to lift the trophy will be their first title for them in this tournament.
Your prediction might be right because Spain and England are relatively the strongest and currently the favorites, but if you look at Sweden's game when they beat Japan they appeared very impressive with their excellent attacks as well as in defense because in the second half, Japan appeared to attack but Sweden managed to break attack well even though Japan managed to score one goal.
Sweden has been to the final once only losing to Germany, England's best achievement is ranked third while Spain and Australia will be the first finals if they manage to beat their opponents. In my opinion, this semifinal match will be more interesting because the four teams are the best.
It would be very surprising if Sweden vs Australia went to the final, because as the host of course Australia was very motivated to go further because of the support of the spectators.

I am more excited regarding the second semi-final, i.e the one between Australia and France. I was expecting one of the Asian teams in the semi-finals, but never thought that Australia had a chance. I was hoping that Japan will be able to defeat Sweden during the quarter-finals. But things went wrong for Japan and they got kicked out of the tournament by Sweden. But then Australia made full use of the home advantage by defeating a very strong France. England is the only top-5 team remaining in this competition and I really hope that they will be defeated by Australia in the semis.
