USA and Australia will square off for World Cup title

World Cup semifinal results:

Australia outlasted Spain, 72-66, behind a big double-double from Liz Cambage.

USA post-game interviews.

China rallied past Canada, 76-71.

They will face France tomorrow for fifth place.

Tomorrow's final:

USA vs. Australia will play at 12 p.m. PT/3 p.m. ET on ESPN

This is the World Cup finals match up that the world deserves.

Lead by Cambage, Australia has looked dominant.


World Cup player news:

Brittney Griner scored the 10,000th point for Team USA - the only nation to reach that mark in total World Cup appearances.

Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi are joined at the top.

Liz Cambage isn't bad luck for Australia.

Bonus:

A new system for Olympic and World Cup qualifying will take effect next year.

FIBA president Horacio Muratore is delighted with the World Cup and looks forward to an electrifying finish.
