Canada advanced to the Women's World Cup semifinals for the first time in its history following a stunning 1-0 upset of China on Thursday. Charmaine Hooper scored what turned out to be the game-winner with a seventh-minute header. China spent the rest of the match searching for an equalizer, but Canada's defense led by goalkeeper Taryn Swiatek shut down the 1999 World Cup finalists and the Canadians held on for a memorable victory.
