It's over. Japan is out. They worked, they worked very hard at containing Spain. But perhaps not getting enough going in their final third. Spain knows it has been in a game here, make no mistake about that. You only have to look at the wild celebrations when they scored.
Women's Final
Sweden v Canada
Men's Final
Brazil v Spain

Let's take a look from the bookies' perspective.
In the women's department, Sweden are clear match favourites at 3/4 for the 90 minutes win while Canada are a big 15/4.
To win in 90 minutes, extra time or a shootout (3 bets in 1 if you like) Sweden arrive at 2/5 with Canada at 7/4.
The men's game is tighter with a hair's difference in the 90 minutes only betting. Spain come in as narrow favourites at 13/8 and Brazil at 31/20, a difference of just 7 cents in the buck.
Both sides arrive at 10/11 to lift the trophy in 90, ET or a shootout.

Women's Final
Sweden 1
Canada 1
Blackstenius for Sweden '35
Fleming equalizes '67
Ten minutes left. What the hell time kick-off was this, usually morning kick-offs.

Women's Final Sweden 1 Canada 1 Blackstenius for Sweden '35 Fleming equalizes '67 Ten minutes left. What the hell time kick-off was this, usually morning kick-offs. It seems that both teams requested that the match be moved to the evening (local time), to avoid the heat.
