ENGLAND WILL FACE GERMANY FOR BRONZE

Saturday's BDO Women's World Cup final will be between The Netherlands and Argentina.

In the second of yesterday's semi finals, Argentina's Luciana Aymar opened the scoring late in the first half, with a second Argentine goal coming from Rosario Luchetti in the last ten minutes. Germany grabbed a late consolation goal off Maike Stockel. Final score 2-1. The result means that Germany will meet England in the bronze medal match on Saturday.

As a follow-up to England's semi final, we notice that Maatje Paumen is being officially credited with the first Dutch goal. In last night's blog we gave the goal as a deflection off the stick off Janneke Schopman from Paumen's strike.

This afternoon's matches in Rosario are the crossover matches to decide the fifth to tenth places, featuring India v South Africa (9th/10th, New Zealand v China (7th/8th) and Australia v Korea.
