European teams have reigned supreme so far in the World Cup knockout stages, with Germany and England cruising to easy 3-0 wins over Cameroon and Nigeria, respectively, while Norway and Italy continued their excellent runs.
The Norwegians beat Australia on penalties, while Italy have already matched their best-ever result in a World Cup with their quarter-finals appearance.
They beat China in their last match:
The Azzurre's reward will be a meeting with the current European champions. The Netherlands scraped past Japan, finalists two years ago, in part thanks to a phenomenal outing from goalkeeper Sari van Veenendaal.
Oranje needed a late goal from Lieke Martens to avoid extra time:
The U.S. also had to battle hard to get to this stage, getting more than a little lucky against Spain.
Megan Rapinoe converted two penalties in the 2-0 win, and both decisions were far from clear-cut:
They'll face a Bleues squad that struggled to get past Brazil, needing extra time and a late goal from Amandine Henry after 107 minutes.
The clash in Paris should be the highlight of the quarter-finals, and the winner will likely be the oddsmakers' favourite for the title.
Germany have yet to concede a goal and cruised to an easy win in the previous round, putting three goals past Nigeria. Sweden―who knocked out Canada―should provide them with their biggest test yet.
Predictions: England, USA, Italy and Germany advance to the semi-finals.
