England discover last World Cup group stage opponents as Haiti make history

England discovered their final group opponent in this year's Women's World Cup as Haiti triumphed over Chile to qualify for their first ever tournament.

Midfielder Melchie Dumornay got Haiti off the mark on the stroke of half time with a powerful effort into the top corner. The 19-year-old is widely tipped as one of the best young players in the world and is set to join European champions Lyon from Reims in the summer.

Striker Roselord Borgella then spurned a glorious chance to double the Haitians' tally before captain Nerilia Mondesir saw her penalty saved in the 89th minute after a foul in the box from Chile's Isidora Olave. However, Mondesir soon atoned for her miss by setting up Dumornay for Haiti's second goal in the eighth minute of stoppage time.
