    Argentina 0-0 Sweden

    Gilly Flaherty

    Former England defender on BBC Red Button

    Disappointing delivery, you would be expecting better.

    Argentina did well to defend it because you know how dangerous Sweden are on the second phase too.

  2. Post update

    Argentina 0-0 Sweden

    Sweden have a free kick on the right but the ball into the box is poor and behind everyone.

    An opportunity wasted.

  3. Post update

    South Africa 0-0 Italy

    South Africa have taken the lead in both their group games so far but have failed to hold onto the win. So far in this game they've been very cautious and barely wandered beyond the halfway line.

  4. Post update

    Argentina 0-0 Sweden

    This is must win for Argentina and they've had the only effort of note so far in this game but it wasn't much to shout about as Mariana Larroquette scuffed a 35-yard effort well wide.

  5. Post update

    South Africa 0-0 Italy

    Sue Smith

    Former England international on BBC Two

    Italy have played through the thirds quite well during the tournament, but they've lacked that end product.

  6. Post update

    South Africa 0-0 Italy

    South Africa have had a lot of defending to do in these early stages with Italy on the front foot.

    Valentina Giacinti receives a pass with her back to goal inside the box but she's marshalled well and the ball is cleared.

  7. Post update

    Argentina 0-0 Sweden

    Gilly Flaherty

    Former England defender on BBC Red Button

    Argentina might not get many chances, they might be few and far between so they have got to look after it.

  8. Post update

    Argentina 0-0 Sweden

    Sweden are backed by a decent amount of fans at the Waikato Stadium and they've made a good start to this game as an early cross is plucked out of the air by Vanina Correa.

  9. KICK-OFF

    Here we go! Two huge games in Group G.

    Sweden are through, but who is joining them will be decided in the next 90 minutes.

  10. Post update

    The players are out on the pitch at both the Waikato Stadium and Wellington Regional Stadium.

    Time for the national anthems.

    Before the Women's World Cup started, the prospect of facing world number one and defending champions USA in the knockouts would be a daunting one.

    It still is, but their patchy form in the group stage shows their rivals that they are not quite at their best.

    Sweden look certain to be facing the United States in the last 16 as they sit top of Group G, but who will be joining them? It is almost time for kick off in both games.

  12. 'It's gone down to the wire'

    South Africa v Italy (08:00 BST)

    Fern Whelan

    Former England and Brighton defender on BBC Two

    It is so exciting, the fact it has gone down to the wire. You can't really look at rankings anymore; Italy would have potentially been favourites to go through in this game, but South Africa have put in some great performances.

  13. 'Do or die'

    South Africa v Italy (08:00 BST)

    .

    Given what is at stake, South Africa coach Desiree Ellis has likened this game to a final.

    “We know it’s going to be a difficult game," she said.

    "They are going to have to protect what they have and we have to come for the three points.

    "It is do or die, nothing less than victory. We have really worked hard on a lot in the last few days, how we can hurt them. We can’t share that plan but we have worked on something we feel can get us the results."

    Here's how things went in the last round of Group G fixtures.

  16. 'Sweden to steamroll Argentina'

    Argentina v Sweden (08:00 BST)

    .

    Argentina need a win to have any chance of progressing, but that is just not happening.

    Sweden are already though, and reminded everyone with their big win against Italy what powerhouses they are.

    I can see them steamrollering over Argentina in the same way and winning 3-0.

  17. 'South Africa to edge through'

    South Africa v Italy (08:00 BST)

    .

    South Africa need to win this one to finish second, otherwise Italy go through.

    It is a huge moment for both teams, but especially Banyana Banyana, who are playing in only their second World Cup and have not made it out of the groups before.

    If they can play like they did against Sweden, I can see South Africa doing it. That's why I am backing them to win 1-0, because I have seen how they can play, but they will have to change their habit of conceding late goals.

  18. Team news

    South Africa v Italy (08:00 BST)

    Desiree Ellis makes two changes to her South Africa side that were denied a first ever World Cup victory by Argentina in their last Group G match.

    Noxolo Cesane and captain Refiloe Jane, who was carried off in a stretcher with an ankle injury against the South American side, start on the bench.

    They are replaced by Noko Matlou and Robyn Moodaly.

    Banyana Banyana are without midfielder Kholosa Biyana, after she picked up a second yellow card in two games.

    South Africa XI: Swart, Matlou, Mbane, Gamede, Dhlamini, Ramalepe, Moodaly, Motlhalo, Kgatlana, Seoposenwe, Magaia.

    Subs: Dlamini, Cesane, Magama, Holweni, Kgoale, Moletsane, Salgado, Shongwe, Makhubela, Kgadiete, Jane.

    South africa starting XI

    Milena Bertolini only makes two changes from the Italian side that suffered a humilitating 5-0 defeat at the hands of Sweden.

    Italy XI: Durante, Orsi, Di Guglielmo, Linari, Boattin, Giugliano, Bonansea, Beccari, Dragoni, Caruso, Giacinti.

  19. Team news - nine changes for Sweden

    Argentina v Sweden (08:00 BST)

    Argentina are without defender Miriam Mayorga, who is suspended after picking up two bookings in the first two games. Julieta Cruz takes her place in the back four.

    This is one of four changes for the side, which also sees midfielders Adriana Sachs, Aldana Cometti, Camila Gomez Ares come in.

    Subs: Esponda, Abigail Chavez, Benitez, Gabriela Chavez, Falfan, Gramaglia, Ippolito, Lonigro, Rodriguez, Santana, Singarella.

    Argentina XI

    Having already secured qualification following two wins from two, Sweden ring the changes. Only two of the side that beat Italy 5-0 remain in the XI - defenders Amanda Ilestedt and Magdalena Eriksson.

    Caroline Seger captains the side in a midfield three alongside Hanna Bennison (of Everton) and Madelen Janogy, meaning Manchester City's Filippa Angeldahl drops to the bench.

    Star forwards Fridolina Rolfo and Stina Blackstenius are also amongst the substitutes, with Rebecka Blomqvist - a scorer late on against Italy - part of the front three.

    Sweden: Falk, Lennartsson, Ilestedt, Eriksson, Sandberg, Bennison, Seger, Jakobsson, Janogy, Schough, Blomqvist.

    Subs: Enblom, Musovic, Andersson, Angeldal, Asllani, Bjorn, Blackstenius, Hurtig, Kaneryd, Rolfo, Rubensson, Sembrant.
