England and Australia are both hoping to make history by reaching the FIFA Women's World Cup final for the first time when they meet in Sydney tonight.

The Matildas had never advanced beyond the quarter-finals before this tournament, while European champions England are playing in their third successive World Cup semi-final.

81,000 fans will pack out Stadium Australia tonight for the big match.
