Spain defeated Switzerland in the World Cup
Spain has reached the semi-finals of the Women's World Cup for the first time after showing its bravery by beating Switzerland 5-1.
Last week, Japan beat Spain 4-0 in their final group game in Wellington.
However, the Spanish players came back in style and scored four goals in the first 45 minutes of the game in front of 43,217 spectators at Eden Park in New Zealand.
The Spanish team is the first to reach the quarter-finals and will face the winner of Sunday's match between the Netherlands and South Africa in Wellington next Friday.
In the second round, Japan beat Norway 3-1 to advance to the semi-finals.
Now it will play against the country that wins the match between the United States and Sweden in the next round.
