The fifth day of the FIFA Women's World Cup 2019 kicked off Tuesday afternoon in Paris. The matches of the day will pit New Zealand and the Netherlands against Group E and the four teams from Group F, the last group in the tournament.
United States 13 – 0 Thailand
Last team to play in the opening match, the United States had something to prove by opening their defense of the FIFA Women's World Cup 2019 on Tuesday. American women were the clear favorite to win this match and with five wins and two draws, they had never lost an opening match in the tournament's history.
Summary of the match between the United States and Thailand
Calling this match a rout is a euphemism. Continuing on their winning streak without defeat, the United States in first place have just left Thailand in 34th place.

The United States came out of the gate, dominating the ball and keeping the ball in half of the field in Thailand. They found the back of the net in the fifth minute on their third shot. But after VAR examination, the goal was recalled because an American player was in an offside position.
Morgan corrected this in the 12th minute by entering his first day of the night. Kelly O'Hara played a perfect ball over the defenders on the right side of the penalty area and Morgan led the ball effortlessly.
Everything was downhill from there.
By the end of the first half, the United States had taken a 3-0 lead. Nobody could have predicted that they would score 10 more in the second half.
The 13 goals of the United States are the most marked in a World Cup match – men or women. Alex Morgan's five goals equal the record of a Women's World Cup match hosted by Michelle Akers (USA).
The defending champions proved why they were the favorites. Seven different women combined for 13 goals.
"We were really clinical," said Alex Morgan about their offensive game. "Every goal counts in this tournament."
In the end, the United States scored 13 goals out of 39 shots, 21 of which were framed. Thailand blocked nine shots on goal, but allowed 10 strokes.

Chile 0 – 2 Sweden
Chile made its maiden appearance in the Women's World Cup on Tuesday in the Group F opening match. The 39th ranked La Roja Femenina took on Sweden, ranked ninth, which took part in all FIFA Women's World Cups since its debut in 1991. It's the first time that these two teams meet.
Summary of the match
In the first 45 minutes, Chile resisted the Swedish attack. Sweden's third chance came from their third corner in the 23rd minute. A head well placed in the lower corner of the net seemed to be able to return. A goalkeeper goalkeeper, Christiane Endler, saved the ball with her fingertips to clear the ball in the middle of the goal, preventing Sweden from scoring. The Chilean goalkeeper made two more big saves in the first period, canceling the Swedish attack.
The Swedes held 70 percent of the ball and beat La Roja 8-2. But the score was nil and nil as the whistle sounded to end the half-time.
The weather was tough in Rennes and the early sun gave way to a pouring rain for the last 45 minutes. In the 72nd minute, the referee made the decision to suspend the match due to bad weather.
After the delay of the weather, the Swedish attack came back in force and finally allowed to break the deadlock in the 83rd minute. A fight in the fight for the ball in the surface of Chile led to some missteps and failures when Asllani rushed to pass the ball over the head of Endler for the first goal .
In the fourth minute of the game, Janogy – who was in the 81st minute – found the ball 40 yards and three defensemen to score his first goal on the international stage. The late goal sealed Sweden's win, giving no change to Chile.

New Zealand 0-1 Netherlands
New Zealand against the Netherlands started action on Tuesday, marking the start of the first matches of Group E. Expectations were high for the Dutch during their second World Cup appearance. The two countries had already faced each other in the group stage of the 2015 Women's World Cup, which ended in a 1-0 win against the Netherlands.
Summary of the match
The story is repeated in a fierce battle on both sides of the balloon. We had a lot of chances, but no goal after 90 minutes of play.
Patience paid for the Netherlands, however. In the second minute of stopping, the goalie tie was finally broken. The tired legs, the Netherlands lobbed a ball into the box, two headers later, Jill Roord scored her 4th international goal for the Netherlands.
Just minutes from a draw and a vital point in the Group E standings, New Zealand has its tenth World Cup loss. Their all-time record in the Women's World Cup is 0-3-10. The Kiwis will face Cameroon, who lost to Canada yesterday, while New Zealand faces Canada in the Group E summit.
