Telemundo, NBCUniverso & More to Air FIFA WOMEN'S WORLD CUP CANADA 2015 Games

The 16 teams are set for the KNOCKOUT phase of the FIFIA Women's World Cup Canada 2015 ™ and fans can see all the cheers and tears of the games on TELEMUNDO, NBC UNIVERSO and NBCDeportes.com digital platforms, with commentary and analysis by Sammy Sadovnik, Carlos Hermosillo, Copán Álvarez and Frederik Oldenburg. Fans can also keep up with the tournament on NBCDeportes.com and the NBC Deportes en VIVO EXTRA mobile app.

On Mon., June 22, the USA vs. Colombia match will air at 7:30 p.m. ET / 4:30 p.m. PT on NBC UNIVERSO. The U.S. Women advanced to the KNOCKOUT stage by winning its Group. They beat Australia 3-1, tied Sweden 0-0, and beat Nigeria 1-0. Colombia finished third in its Group by drawing with Mexico 1-1, defeating France 2-0 and falling to England 2-1. The U.S. women last faced Colombia in World Cup competition in 2011 in Germany and won that meeting 3-0. The winner of this match will move on to face the winner of the China vs. Cameroon match scheduled for Sat., June 20 on NBCD.com.

Preceding the USA vs. Colombia match on Monday, will be a robust schedule of Women's World Cup competition that also includes Brazil vs. Australia on Sat., June 21 at 12:30 p.m. ET / 9:30 a.m. PT on Telemundo. Simply stated, Brazil's women's team is on fire. During group play, Brazil finished top of its group with nine points, and has yet to concede a goal at this year's tournament. Several of Brazil's star players should be fresh for their KNOCKOUT game against Australia, as the coach of the South American squad decided to not have the women play during its 1-0 victory over Costa Rica. For Australia, this will be its third consecutive trip to the KNOCKOUT stage of a Women's World Cup. However, the Aussies have never advanced beyond the stage in the tournament and will most likely have their hands full against a talented Brazilian team.

In addition, three other highly rated teams in this year's Women's World Cup - Germany, France and Sweden all advanced to the round of 16. However, two of the three will not hoist the World Cup trophy this year, as all three are in the same section of the bracket, guaranteeing that at least two will be eliminated.

Germany vs. Sweden, 3:30PM/2:30C/12:30P on TELEMUNDO.
