    A superb choice on every level.

    Jamaica v Brazil (11:00 BST)

    It has been 28 years since Brazil, who have qualified for every tournament, failed to make the knockout rounds.

    They followed up a draw with Panama by losing to France.

    Jamaica v Brazil (11:00 BST)

    Jamaica manager Lorne Donaldson says his Reggae Girlz are also determined to stay on in Australia, adding that the return of striker Khadija Shaw from suspension could help them do just that.

    Shaw, who scored 31 goals in 30 games for Manchester City last season, was sent off after receiving a second yellow card in Jamaica's 0-0 draw with France and missed the 1-0 win over Panama.

    "She's a lethal weapon, she scores goals and is the leading goal-scorer in Jamaica," Donaldson said.

    "She's a very good leader and an outstanding footballer."

    Panama v France (11:00 BST)

    RBF

    I really enjoyed co-commentating on France's win over Brazil - France's squad depth made the difference in the end, with the players they brought on, but either team could have won it.

    Hopefully that was a sign of what we'll see more of in the knockout stages, with not much of a gap between the teams, but France should run out easy winners here to ensure they go through.

    They looked brilliant down the left-hand side against Brazil and they should be too organised, and also too dynamic, for Panama to deal with.

    Brown-Finnis' prediction: 0-2

    Welcome to Sydney Football Stadium, which has seen its fair share of drama at this World Cup.

    It was here that France were held by Jamaica in their opening match, and even more notably, where Colombia stunned Germany with Linda Caicedo's wonder goal and Manuela Vanegas' late header.

    Could we see another seismic upset this evening?

  6. 'Both teams can make history'published at 10:42 British Summer Time 2 August 2023

    We are in front of two teams with completely different perspectives.

    Jamaica can make history in a good way and Brazil can make history in a bad way by not making it to out of the group for the first time ever. It will be a really interesting game to watch.

    Brazil is going to go for it, they need a win. Jamaica has to be clever, be compact, defend well. I think Brazil are going to have a lot of chances.

    The big news for France is that captain Wendie Renard and all-time top scorer Eugenie le Sommer have both been dropped to the bench.

  9. Who needs what?published at 10:33 British Summer Time 2 August 2023

    France will qualify for the round of 16 if they avoid defeat against eliminated Panama, and will win the group with victory - unless second-placed Jamaica beat Brazil by a greater margin.

    Jamaica will cause a historic upset and eliminate Brazil if they avoid defeat against Pia Sundhage's side. They could still progress if they lose, but only if France suffer defeat by a greater number of goals.

    Brazil will go through if they beat Jamaica, or if they draw and France lose.
