Jamaica 1 0 and will now face england. As David Brindle reports it was a tense and nervous game with so much at stake. At the stadium where canada, brazil and the United States were eliminated. Colombia and jamaica hoped to avoid a similar fate for the winners. England await. The first half was physical and tense, but ultimately goalless. That was nothing new forjamaicas defence, whove been impenetrable in this tournament. But when Catalina Guzman brought a long ball down in the area perfectly, she ended that run. Commentator hit the front thanks to their captain on the night. Her second goal of this fifa womens world cup. And it sends the colombians in the stands into raptures.

We will have more reac
