The end of the first round and the start of the second round of the FIFA World Cup 2023. You will have to get up early for the first of the three meetings on the program, Tuesday 25 July, with Colombia and South Korea at 4 am. Everything will be broadcast on the antennas of France Télévisions.
4:00 am CST – South Korea (France 2)
The last two teams not to participate in the competition will start. On the other hand, Colombia will find the atmosphere of the World Cup match for the first time since 2015 and its loss in the round of 16 against the United States. On the other hand, the Koreans will prove their third consecutive participation in the competition, hoping to achieve a better performance than in the previous edition in 2019. The latter lost each of their three meetings in the group stage, against Nigeria and Norway and against France.
7:30 am NZ and Philippine time (France 3)
After winning their first World Cup match in the opening meeting, will New Zealand take another step towards qualifying for the finals? The victory over Norway (1-0) allows them, in any case, to approach this match with a good capital of confidence. Especially since the Philippines missed their entry into the race, logically losing to Switzerland (0-2). Back to the wall, the latter is almost already doomed to this achievement to extend their adventure in their first participation in the World Cup, and they will have to win a score in a stadium won by the New Zealand team.
10:00 am: Switzerland – Norway (France 2)
Wash off the insult Euro 2022: Chance No. 2. After being slapped (0-8) in England in their last major competition, with first-round elimination at stake, Ada Hegerberg’s Norway are looking for payback. But, after the misstep against New Zealand when they entered the competition, the trend is not reassuring. Defeat would put the Norwegians in an almost impossible position. It would be an earthquake for this selection who have only been knocked out in the first round once in their first eight World Cup appearances, in 2011. In an ideal situation, the Swiss would not hesitate to confirm a downgrade of their opponent.
