In Group B, the host nation, Australia, secured their spot as group winners, while the Super Falcons of Nigeria triumphed as the runner-up, narrowly edging out Canada and the Republic of Ireland.

Group C witnessed the likes of Spain and Japan demonstrating their prowess, confidently progressing to the Round of 16 after securing victories in their opening two matches.
