More from Variety

This year’s World Cup was the first time that 32 teams competed for the world title, with more than half of the field as serious title contenders. While the U.S underperformed this year, it’s no surprise that England, off the back of a Euros 2022 win and Australia, whose striker Sam Kerr is one of the best players on the field, have both made it to the semifinals.

This week, eyes will be on Spain and Sweden, who are set to face off Tuesday at 4:00 am ET.
