Germany and Korea DPR get ready to faceoff in the semifinals of the 2012 U17 Women's World Cup. The action begins at 11 a.m. ET/ 8 p.m. AZT.
Korea have been the tournament's offensive juggernaut from the first day they stepped on to the court. They defeated Gambia 11-0, which set them up to take the Group B standings as the three top teams all finished with 1-2 records.
France was the other team to get out of Group B alive and they advanced to semifinals as well.
The formula to stop Korea DPR is easier said than done; stop Ri Un Sim, who has scored just about half of the goals for her team in these four games of the tournament. Sim has seven of Korea's 15 goals.
Opposing Korea will be Germany who has yet to lose a match in the tournament posting three wins and one draw in their four matches in Azerbaijan.
Last week, Germany defeated Brazil to advance to the semifinals.
They have not been an increasingly dominant team the way Korea has in the tournament, as they have scored 10 goals and allowed five goals.
Sara Daebritz is their leading scorer with three goals and their assist leader with two.
