Women's World Cup knockout bracket set after dramatic opening round

The grind of the 2023 Women’s World Cup group stage is complete and will give way to what should be equally entertaining knockout rounds in Australia and New Zealand.

The final bracket was determined Thursday after the last round of group stage matches brought an end to one of the most competitive and unpredictable opening rounds in Women’s World Cup history.

Colombia (ranked 25th) and Morocco (72) emerged from Group H on Thursday to snatch places in the round of 16. Both represented the latest of a handful of teams to defy expectations and qualify, while group favorite Germany was eliminated in dramatic fashion on the last day after drawing with South Korea.

South Africa, Jamaica, and Nigeria also pulled off upsets that helped each nation book unexpected tickets to the round of 16.

The surprising berths came at the expense of nations that couldn’t live up to expectations, such as Brazil, Italy, and Canada.

Knockouts are set. 🔒

Here we go!
