The finale of the Women’s Olympic Football Tournament group stage is almost upon us, with six of the eight quarter-final places still to be determined. In Group A, hosts France know a point will see them through against a New Zealand side who must win to stay in with a chance. Colombia will advance to the last eight if they avoid defeat against Canada, who know a victory will propel them into the quarter-finals.
USA face Australia with qualification already secured from Group B and their opponents will join them should they avoid defeat. Germany, for their part, will progress with a point against a Zambian side in need of victory to have any hope themselves. Elsewhere, Brazil require just a point against already-qualified Spain to join them from Group C, while a draw will also do for Japan in their tussle against Nigeria, who need a win and for other results to go their way.
