Lionesses 16-1 chances for World Cup glory

ENGLAND'S women remain in the hunt for World Cup glory after coming from behind to beat Norway 2-1 on Monday and their steady improvement has caught the attention of the layers, with their trophy odds shrinking from 25-1 to 16-1.

History has been made by England, who won a World Cup knockout stage match for the first time, and they are evens with Hills to make further progress by eliminating hosts Canada in Saturday night's quarter-final in Vancouver.

The draw has opened up for Mark Sampson's side, who could reach the final without having to play any of the three market leaders - Germany, USA and France (priced up at 2-1, 9-4 and 13-2 respectively).

One of the heavyweights will fall on Friday as Germany take on France in Montreal.

Germany are 23-20 to advance in normal time while France are 5-2 shots to spring a surprise.

Manchester United have been linked with a move for Bayern Munich midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger, who is 10-11 to make the switch to Old Trafford this summer.
