Women’s World Cup fixtures today - your guide to Thursday's matchday 15 games
- Thursday sees Group H come to a close in Australia
- Colombia need a point against Morocco to top group
- Germany still need to confirm last 16 spot in clash with South Korea
The group stage of the Women's World Cup is coming to an end but there are still qualification spots to be confirmed in Group H.
Germany, who ranked highly among the pre-tournament favourites, have work to do after being stunned by Colombia, who shocked viewers to take two wins from their first two games.
However, both Morocco and South Korea aren't out of the running and, with surprises occurring throughout the competition's early stages, neither can be discounted just yet.
Here's how you can keep up to speed with all of Thursday's Women's World Cup action.
Morocco vs Colombia - Group H
- Location: Perth, Australia
- Stadium: Perth Rectangular Stadium
- Date: Thursday 3 August
- Kick-off Time: 11:00 BST / 06:00 EST / 03:00 PST
- Referee: Maria Sole Ferrieri Caputi (ITA)
Colombia have firmly established themselves as the surprise package of the group stage and look well set to reach the last 16 for the second time in their history, having only played at three Women's World Cup tournaments in total.
The South Americans were gifted victory by South Korea in their first game, but their second outing was the stuff of legend, beating Germany 2-1 with a 97th-minute winner from Manuela Vanegas to inflict their opponents' first defeat in the World Cup group stage since 1995.
Morocco are still in contention to reach the knockout stage but must win and hope Germany don't to seal their place. To remain in with a chance of knockout stage qualification in their first World Cup is a great result for the Atlas Lionesses but a mighty performance is required here after a 6-0 defeat to Germany and a 1-0 victory over South Korea.

South Korea vs Germany - Group H
- Location: Brisbane, Australia
- Stadium: Brisbane Stadium
- Date: Thursday 3 August
- Kick-off Time: 11:00 BST / 06:00 EST / 03:00 PST
- Referee: Anna-Marie Keighley (NZL)
South Korea are still looking to win just their second Women's World Cup game ever in their fourth appearance at the tournament and that challenge doesn't get any easier by facing Germany in their final Group H game.
However, the two-time world champions' 20-game unbeaten run in the group stage came to an end with an upset loss to Colombia, meaning it's as good a time as ever for South Korea to face the European giants.
But DFB-Frauenteam remain heavy favourites to secure the win that would take them through to the last 16 and eliminate South Korea in the group stage again.
