    Was she offside? VAR is having a look...

    GOAL - South Africa 2-2 Italypublished at 09:36 British Summer Time 2 August 2023

    Arianna Caruso

    And that's how crucial that save was as Italy equalise!

    Arianna Caruso is celebrating as she appears to get the slightest of touch to flick in a corner.

  3. GREAT SAVE!published at 09:35 British Summer Time 2 August 2023

    South Africa 2-1 Italy

    Big save by Francesca Durante! She somehow gets across to push away Thembi Kgatlana's header that was going towards the bottom corner.

    That keeps Italy in this.

    This is how things currently look in Group G with South Africa on course to join Sweden in progressing to the knockouts.

    Just under 20 minutes to go. Still plenty of time for more twists and turns.

    What a goal by South Africa.

    Magaia keeps her composure. She was looking for a flag before she celebrated.

    Brilliant.

    It's about time, Sweden.

    Sofia Jakobsson has had a frustrating game but that was a fantastic delivery.

    Touch, delivery. Sofia Jakobsson didn't take 1,00 touches like she has done previously. Touch, delivery and not letting Argentina get set.

    GOAL - South Africa 2-1 Italypublished at 09:29 British Summer Time 2 August 2023

    Hildah Magaia

    HUGE goal!

    Italy are undone as they play the ball out from the back and the dangerous Thembi Kgatlana runs at the defence before slipping a brilliant ball through to Hildah Magaia, who just stays onside and fires in a composed finish.

    South Africa have the lead and are on the verge of a first Women's World Cup win but crucially, a place in the last 16!

  8. goal

    GOAL - Argentina 0-1 Swedenpublished at 09:27 British Summer Time 2 August 2023

    Rebecka Blomqvist (65 mins)

    A lovely move and Group G leaders Sweden are ahead!

    They work the ball quickly down the right and Sofia Jakobsson swings in a perfect cross for Rebecka Blomqvist to power home a header.

    Sweden are firmly on course to go through as group winners.

  9. Postpublished at 09:26 British Summer Time 2 August 2023

    South Africa 1-1 Italy

    Important intervention by Elena Linari as she cuts out a forward ball to prevent Thembi Kgatlana racing through.

    South Africa are on top as they chase that historic win and, potentially, a place in the last 16.

  10. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 09:24 British Summer Time 2 August 2023

    Here come those Sweden changes as Olivia Schough and Amanda Ilestedt are replaced by Linda Sembrant and Lina Hurtig.

    Argentina 0-0 Sweden

    Just under 30 minutes to go and Argentina are going to have to step things up soon as a draw is no good for them.

    Sweden are preparing a couple of changes.

    South Africa 1-1 Italy

    Thembi Kgatlana has been a real menace for South Africa so far in this half. A great run gets the crowd going before she is crowded out, but South Africa come forward again as Jermaine Seoposenwe has the ball on the left side of the box but her low strike is smothered by Francesca Durante.

    Good stuff from South Africa, however.

    Argentina 0-0 Sweden

    Good run by Argentina's Estefanía Banini on the edge of the box. She has support but it is clear she is only thinking of going for goal and it is the wrong option as her dipping effort is an easy save for Jennifer Falk.

  14. Postpublished at 09:17 British Summer Time 2 August 2023

    South Africa 1-1 Italy

    Good run by Thembi Kgatlana as she gets in-between the Italy defence and runs into the box. Italy get numbers back well and Kgatlana tries to sneak a shot in at the near post but she's off balance as she shoots and puts it wide.

    Argentina might try and hold on for 60-70 minutes and then go for it because what else have they got to lose? You want to win the game and you need to win the game.

    Argentina 0-0 Sweden

    Anna Sandberg has space to attack down the left and she swings the ball into the box but it is too close to Vanina Correa.

  17. Postpublished at 09:12 British Summer Time 2 August 2023

    South Africa 1-1 Italy

    Italy have a good opportunity with a free kick right on the edge of the South Africa area but Lisa Boattin gets it all wrong as she clips her effort well wide.

    It is windy in Wellington, but it was always going wide anyway.

    To be able to have a left footed centre-back like Magdalena Eriksson on the left hand side is an outlet for Sweden.

  19. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 09:09 British Summer Time 2 August 2023

    South Africa 1-1 Italy

    Robyn Moodaly, who hit the post for South Africa in the first half, hasn't come back out for the second half, with defender Nomvula Kgoale replacing her.

  20. KICK-OFFpublished at 09:07 British Summer Time 2 August 2023

    We're back under way in both games. Sweden and Italy are going through as things stand, but lots of football still to be played.
