EDMONTON, Alberta — Laura Bassett scored into her own net during second-half stoppage time, giving Japan a 2-1 victory over England in a Women’s World Cup semifinal. The decisive goal Wednesday came when Japan’s Nahomi Kawasumi drove up the right side and sent a cross into the middle for Yuki Ogimi. The ball struck the crossbar and bounced in just before goalkeeper Karen Bardsley could get across. The defending champion advanced to play the United States in the championship game at Vancouver on Sunday. Bassett was inconsolable at the end of the match, lying flat on the ground, her face in the turf. “This team can’t be afraid to cry,” England coach Mark Sampson said.
