Spain Women will be looking to make their first-ever semi-finals appearance in the Women's World Cup when they take on Netherlands Women in Wellington on Friday.
The last time La Roja progressed to the last-four of a major tournament was at the 1997 UEFA Women's Championship. Jorge Vilda's side brushed past Switzerland 5-1 in the round of 16, but had their weaknesses exposed in the 4-0 defeat to Japan in the group stage.
Meanwhile, coach Andries Jonker's Netherlands have been consistent in the ongoing tournament given that they scored in each they have played thus far and conceded once which was in the 1-1 draw with the USWNT. The Dutch side has scored nine goals including the 2-0 win over South Africa to get to the quarter-finals.
