Another stunning result rolled in overnight, as the Philippines claimed their first ever World Cup victory, besting co-host New Zealand 1-0 on a goal in the 24th minute by Sarina Bolden. A scoreless draw between Norway and Switzerland in the other Group A match leaves the Norwegian squad in a difficult spot. They’ll need a win by more than a goal and some help if they’re going to advance to the knockout round. All of Group C will take the pitch Wednesday, along with one game from Groups C and E, including the United States.

Christine Sinclair and the rest of her Canadian teammates need to re-focus and come out aggressively against Ireland, in search of three points on Wednesday, if they want to advance.
