Fuka Nagano completed the full match as Japan defeated Norway 3-1 to reach the quarter-finals of the Women’s World Cup on Saturday

The Liverpool FC Women midfielder helped her nation into the final eight of the tournament - which is being held in Australia and New Zealand - at Wellington Regional Stadium.

An own goal from Ingrid Syrstad Engen in the 15th minute saw Japan open the scoring, before Norway levelled five minutes later through Guro Reiten.

Efforts from Risa Shimizu and Hinata Miyazawa, though, saw victory earned for Nagano’s nation in the second half of the contest.

Japan will now face Sweden or the United States for a place in the semi-finals of the competition on August 11.
