The 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup has kicked off in style with hosts France setting the tone for the tournament with a 4-0 win over South Korea in the opener. The first round of matches also saw Germany, Spain, Norway, Brazil, England and Canada getting the first win under their belt. 

The Dutch and the Italians squeezed in late winners to get three points, while the United States of America proved why they’re the outright favourites to lift the World Cup with a resounding 13-0 thrashing of Thailand.
