England are preparing to face Colombia in the Women’s World Cup quarter-finals as the Lionesses continue their knockout campaign in Sydney on Saturday.

Earlier, Sweden held off a late Japan fightback to reach the semi-finals, leaving the tournament without a former winner in the last four ahead of England’s quarter-final against Colombia.

Sweden will play Spain in the semi-finals after La Roja defeated the Netherlands 2-1 to reach their first ever Women’s World Cup semi-final, thanks to Salma Paralluelo’s extra-time winner.

It’s England’s turn on Saturday as they face Colombia. The European champions survived a major scare against Nigeria in the last-16 and know they will need to improve when they take on a dangerous Colombia side, who shocked heavyweights Germany in the group stages.
