Coming into the semi-final of the Women's World Cup, the Spanish women's team was the team that created more chances and controlled the ball better than their opponents. However, in the first 45 minutes of the match, the Swedish defense played well and kept a clean sheet.

In the second half, the two teams fought until the 81st minute, when the Spanish women's team opened the scoring. Substitute Salma Paralluelo took advantage of the opportunity when the ball bounced to her position to help Spain break the deadlock.

However, 7 minutes later, the match became extremely tense after Blomqvist's equalizer to make it 1-1. In this situation, Hurtig headed the ball into the wall to bring a valuable goal, igniting hope for the Swedish girls.

However, Sweden's joy was quickly extinguished. Just 1 minute after the equalizer, in the 89th minute, captain Olga Carmona made a superb long-range shot to raise the score to 2-1.

Seven minutes of added time were not enough for the Swedish strikers to have any last hope. In the end, the Spanish women's team successfully defended their victory and won 2-1.

This victory helped Spain become the first team to reach the final of the 2023 Women's World Cup. This is also the first time in history that the Spanish women's team has achieved this remarkable achievement.

The Spanish women's team's opponent in the 2023 Women's World Cup final will be determined after the match between Australia and England at 5 p.m. tomorrow (August 16).
