Australia – Jamaica (1-4).
Italy – Brazil (0-1).
Before tonight's matches, Norway's opponent in the round of 16 could be Italy, Brazil or Australia.
And he made waves during the evening. Australia took the lead towards Jamaica after captain Sam Kerr took the lead of the Australians.
Same Kerr doubled the lead at 2-0, also on the lead.
In the second round, however, Jamaica was more frequent and, just after the rest, Havana Solaun scored the first goal of his country for the World Cup. The jubilee scenes were so fierce in the stands that FIFA President Gianni Infantino also launched the smiling band.
But after 69 minutes, Sam Kerr created a negative story for Jamaica's role in his hat trick.
This means that Jamaica is the first country to have published three rounds of the hat away, announced the statistics service on Twitter. Against Italy, it's Cristiana Girelli who scored three goals against Jamaica and against Brazil. Christiane had the honor to do the same.
Marta after Klose
As long as the result was 0-0 between Italy and Brazil, Australia's management meant that it was their encounter with Norway in the round of 16.
So in the 75th minute, Debinha was put in the penalty area by Elena Linari. Mexican judge Lucila Venegas highlighted the penalty spot.
– I think it's cheap, commented the NRK commentator, Carl-Erik Torp.
But VAR agreed with Venegas, and Marta had the opportunity to send Brazil ahead.
She certainly did. Thus, she overtook German Miroslav Klose to the table of the best players of the World Cup with 17 goals in total.
At that time, it was also Brazil, Norway, who found themselves for the eighth final on Saturday. 21 years and three days after the men's national team defeated Brazil at the 1998 World Cup, precisely in France.
Magic Kerr
But Sam Kerr wanted it differently. The Chicago Red Star forward scored his fourth goal after the goalkeeper and his fifth goal of the tournament, seven minutes before the end.
With that, Australia has again overtaken Brazil on the table with several goals scored.
Norway meet FIFA number six on Saturday in Nice.
"Then we will meet those we would prefer not to meet before the championship," Torp said.
– Will be a difficult game
Australian coach Ante Milicic has learned that Norway is his opponent in the next match.
– We must improve. Norway is a proud and rich country of history, he said, adding:
– It will be a difficult battle. We must first analyze this fight and see how our girls have succeeded. There is little time to adjust. It will be a day of travel tomorrow. We have to play better than that if we want to form a strong Norwegian team.
The great player today, Sam Kerr, was not terribly scared when she learned that Norway was an opponent.
"We are confident no matter who we meet," she said in an interview broadcast to NRK after the match.
