It's a battle for revenge. South Korea faced Colombia in the group stage of the FIFA Australia-New Zealand Women's World Cup in 2023. At that time, South Korea was completely defeated 0-2. It's been about two years since it's stuck again.

Colombia is playing with rising star Linda Caicedo, born in 2005. Caicedo opened the scoring against South Korea in the group stage of the 2023 Australia-New Zealand World Cup. He also scored the winning goal against South Korea in the round of 16 (0-1 loss) of the FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup held last year. He scored seven goals and four assists in 25 Real Madrid games this season. Caicedo will start again on this day.
