What They're Saying

England head coach Mark Sampson (via the Guardian): "We have huge belief this team will find a way to get themselves through to the final. There's huge determination. England will be the last team to leave Canada. We're two wins away from being world champions and if you'd said that to us 18 months ago, I'm not sure anyone bar myself and some of the staff would have believed it. But, as time has passed, the players have grown in belief and now they feel as if something's really happening, something's going on, that there's a higher purpose involved."

Japan head coach Norio Sasaki (via FIFA): "The game plan was executed very well [against Australia]. We recognize the growth of Australia in this World Cup and my team will take confidence from this and we can build with future success."
