Records – desirable and otherwise – fell in China PR on MON 17 SEP 2007.
» England 06-01 Argentina: Eva GONZÁLEZ scored Argentina’s only goal of the tournament, but it was little comfort as they also conceded six more for a total of eighteen, a new Women’s World Cup record for futility. Kelly SMITH scored two of England’s goals.
» Germany 02-00 Japan: Birgit PRINZ scored off a first half corner to reach a total of thirteen career goals at the Women’s World Cup, surpassing Michelle AKERS’s twelve. Germany move through from Group A in first place, England in second.
