The 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup will be the ninth edition of the tournament. It is a big soccer competition for women's national teams from different countries. The tournament will happen in Australia and New Zealand together. It will start on 20 July and end on 20 August 2023.[1][2] This time, the World Cup will have two host countries instead of just one. It is also the first time that teams from different confederations will play together. Australia belongs to the Asian Confederation, while New Zealand is in the Oceanian Confederation. In the past, the Women's World Cup had 24 teams, but this time it will have 32 teams, just like the men's World Cup. The first game will be between New Zealand and Norway at Eden Park in Auckland on 20 July 2023. The final match will take place on 20 August 2023 at the Sydney Olympic Stadium in Australia.[3] The current champions are the United States, as they won the last two tournaments in 2015 and 2019.[4]
