FIFA World Cup 2015 Group E Live Stream & Schedule: Brazil vs Costa Rica, Spain vs South Korea Match Preview
The four teams in Group E will resume their campaign in the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup on Wednesday.
Brazil vs. Costa Rica
Brazil will try to remain undefeated when they go up against Costa Rica at the Moncton Stadium in Moncton, Canada.
Brazil have already clinched the top spot in the group after scoring a 2-0 win against South Korea in their tournament opener, which was followed by a 1-0 victory against Spain on Saturday.
On the other hand, Costa Rica will be fighting for their lives and they need a victory to advance to the Round-of-16. They are currently in second place in the group with two points after holding Spain to 1-1 draw in their first game of the tournament and South Korea to a 2-2 tie on Saturday.
Costa Rica need a win to clinch the second spot in the group. They could also clinch the second spot with a draw or even with a loss depending on the result of the other Group E game.
But in order to avoid complications, Costa Rica are expected to go all out against the Brazilians. Costa Rica coach Amelia Valverde added, though, that it will be a tall order and that they need to play a perfect game in order to pull off an upset against the Marta-led Brazilian squad.
"We know that we will face a great opponent and we have to play an almost perfect match," Valverde said in a press conference via Tico Times. "The team is realistic and they are fully aware of this, but the dream is alive and we will do everything possible to go for the win."
Spain vs South Korea
Spain and South Korea will collide in a do-or-die battle at the Lansdowne Stadium in Ottawa, Canada.
Both teams have just one point after two games, which means they need to win in order to have a chance to make it into the knockout stage. The winner of the match will move up to second place and book a ticket to the Round-of-16 if Brazil win against Costa Rica.
If Costa Rica manage to pull off an upset against Brazil, the winner of the Spain-South Korea match could still advance to the knockout stage as one of the top four third place teams.
