For the Americans, Wednesday's final group play match vs. Australia is less a determining factor in whether they advance and more a matter of course: Emma Hayes' USWNT squad has already secured advancement following a 3-0 victory vs. Zambia and 4-1 victory vs. Germany. The United States can advance as a group winner with a draw vs. Australia and finish no worse than one of the top two third-place teams of group play.
Elsewhere, the Wednesday slate is headlined by Brazil vs. Spain, a matchup between two top-10 ranked teams in the FIFA world rankings.
