Ramona Bachmann loves major tournaments and she will be Switzerland's most creative player today.

She'll also be fundamental in keeping them together and ensuring the link is there between midfield and attack.

Spare a thought for 16-year-old Iman Beney.

The midfielder was named in Switzerland's World Cup squad but her joy turned to heartache as she had to withdraw because of a serious knee injury.

This World Cup has already featured several 16-year-olds.

After the appearance of youngsters Giulia Dragoni for Italy against Argentina and Costa Rica substitute Sheika Scott against Spain, South Korea's Casey Phair became the youngest-ever player at a Women's World Cup earlier.

While Norway had a bad start to the Women's World Cup it was an ideal one for Switzerland as they opened their campaign with a 2-0 victory over debutants the Philippines.

Watch the highlights above.

This is Julian Lillington who is stopping off in Hamilton to watch this match before flying to Sydney to cheer England's Lionesses against Denmark on Friday.

The London cab driver arrived in New Zealand for the opening game and will be in Australia until the end of the tournament on 20 August.

"I’ve been watching women’s football since 1999. I used to watch Arsenal play on a Sunday at Enfield when Marieanne Spacey was playing," he says. "There would be about 50 people watching."

What does Julian think about Norway's chance?

"I saw Norway beat England 6-0 back in the late 90s. I went to the 1995 World Cup in Sweden and Norway won it.

"We’ve progressed and they have gone backwards."

And what is Julian most looking forward to seeing over the next few weeks?

"Millie Bright lifting the trophy in Sydney on 20 August."

It wasn't a typical Norwegian performance [against New Zealand].

They have some incredible talent in their team and going into that game against the home nation they were a bit nervy and underwhelming.

They will want to bounce back today.

I've heard rumblings from inside the Norway camp that there are differences in opinion about how they should be playing, and no joined-up thinking in the squad about their style of play.

They clearly have some issues to sort out, which is why I can see the Swiss getting the win.

Prediction: 1-0

Earlier today Colombia earned their second-ever Women's World Cup win as they defeat South Korea 2-0 at Moore Park.

History was made as Casey Phair becomes the youngest-ever player at a Women's World Cup.

Just a few moments ago, the Philippines claimed their first-ever Women's World Cup win to beat New Zealand 1-0.

It was a famous victory for the Philippines, one of eight debutants at the tournament, and they celebrated passionately at full-time.

Sarina Bolden headed in Sara Eggesvik's clipped cross in the 24th minute for the country's first goal at a Women's World Cup.

Read the full report here.

Arsenal duo Lia Walti and Noelle Martiz start for Switzerland but Aston Villa's Alisha Lehmann is not in the starting XI.

The Swiss had only one of their previous four games on the World Cup stage before this edition. They're going for two wins out of two here.

Switzerland XI: Thalmann, Maritz, Stierli, Piubel, Aigbogun, Reuteler, Walti, Sow, Bachmann, Riesen, Crnogorcevic.

Hamilton is no stranger to World Cups. This game is taking place at the Waikato Stadium which is close to Seddon Park, the city's cricket ground which hosted three ODI World Cup matches in 2015.

Waikato Stadium is one of the smallest in terms of capacity at this tournament although it was packed on Saturday when Japan put five past Zambia.

Another near-capacity crowd is expected for this one which kicks-off 8pm local time. It's a mild crisp, mild, clear day in this part of New Zealand.

Hello!

It may only be the second round of fixtures but already this game between Norway and Switzerland could have huge repercussions.

Lose again and Norway will be in trouble as they look to avoid being eliminated at the group stage, while a win for Switzerland will send them three points clear at the top of Group.

Three points for the Norwegians will mean they are right back in it, however, with every team on three points.

All to play for with kick off at 09:00 BST.

It was the dream start for tournament co-hosts New Zealand as they upset Norway to claim their first Women's World Cup win in the opening game last week.

The Norwegians - world champions in 1995 - looked way off the mark as they struggled against the Football Ferns but they will be determined to show that it was a blip as they face Switzerland in their crucial Group A game.
