Women's World Cup 2019: Semi-Final Results, Championship Odds and Prediction

Jackie Groenen's extra-time strike against Sweden on Wednesday booked Netherlands' spot in the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup final against the United States.

The second semi-final at the Stade de Lyon was locked at 0-0 until Groenen's low strike from 20 yards in the 99th minute found the corner of the net to propel the Dutch into their first final on Sunday at the same venue.

There they will face the U.S., defending champions and veterans of four previous finals, who beat England 2-1 on Tuesday in a thrilling first semi-final.

The Stars and Stripes are strong favourites to lift a fourth title.
