2023 FIFA Womens World Cup

2023 Women's World Cup Soccer Tournament | Fixtures, Teams, and Updates

The 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup held in Australia and New Zealand featured a total of 32 national teams representing five confederations, all competing for the coveted title of football world champions. The tournament spanned from July 20th to August 20th, and it witnessed the United States women's national soccer team (USWNT) defending their title as two-time champions.

In the final match, England and Spain went head-to-head, with La Roja emerging victorious and securing their first-ever world title. Meanwhile, Sweden claimed the bronze medal.

The format of the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup closely followed the established pattern, with 32 teams divided into eight groups, labeled as Group A to H, each comprising four teams. The group stage involved a round-robin format, where teams within each group faced off in a series of matches.

During the group stage, each team played three games, and the two nations in each group with the highest point totals advanced to the knockout stages. Teams earned three points for a win, one point for a draw, and no points for a loss.

In the event of a tie in points between two or more countries at the end of the group stage, tiebreakers came into play. First, teams were separated based on goal difference (goals scored minus goals conceded). If there was still no clear distinction, the team with the greater number of goals scored took precedence in the group standings. For a detailed list of tie-breaker rules, refer to the FIFA tournament portal.
