We said: Japan Women 2-1 Sweden Women

After playing 120 minutes against the USA, there may be some weary legs among the Sweden squad, and we think that tiredness could play into the hands of their opponents. Japan have proven at the tournament that they are comfortable dominating possession as well as launching clinical counter-attacks, and we think that they will showcase their attacking talent to secure their place in the semi-finals.
