Women’s World Cup live stream: How to watch Italy vs. China

Italy face China at Stade de la Mosson on Tuesday, June 25. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
The Round of 16 in the Women’s World Cup wraps up on Tuesday as Italy face China at Stade de la Mosson in Montpellier. The Italians finished in Group C after winning a three-team tiebreaker between Brazil and Australia. China advanced as one of the four best third-place teams in the group stage.
After failing to qualify for the previous four Women’s World Cups, Italy came to France with something to prove. The Italians made it out of the group stage for the first time since the first Women’s World Cup in 1991.
Italy are lead by a trio of Juventus teammates, Cristiana Girelli, Aurora Galli and Barbara Bonansea. The trio have combined to score seven goals, with Girelli leading her nation with three goals, while Galli and Bonansea have each scored twice. With China’s defensive approach, Italy will likely have a high possession number but will need to break down China’s defense to get into dangerous scoring positions.
The Chinese team might be the best defensive team in the tournament. China allowed only one goal in the group stage, a late goal against Germany, one of the favorites to win the tournament. However, the problem for China will be scoring goals. Li Ying scored the winning goal against South Africa. However, that was China’s only goal in the group stage. The Chinese have made it to the quarterfinals in every Women’s World Cup except 2011 when they failed to qualify.
