At least 14 countries have confirmed their spots in the Round of 16 at the ongoing FIFA Women’s World Cup in New Zealand and Australia, following the conclusion of Wednesday’s group stage fixtures.

South Africa defeated Italy 3-2, and France won 6-3 against Panama to book their places in the last 16. Jamaica drew 0-0 against Brazil, and Sweden won 2-0 against Argentina.

This means Sweden are through to the Round of 16 as they top Group G with nine points from three games, while Jamaica also qualified ahead of Brazil as they finished in second place in Group F.

The likes of Nigeria, England, Denmark, the Netherlands, the United States, Japan, and Spain are already qualified for the last 16.

Others are Australia, Norway, and Switzerland.

The final two countries that will claim the last two spots in the last 16 will be determined tomorrow.
