The Women's World Cup will take place in Brazil next summer, offering fans another opportunity to witness international soccer's premier competition. [1]
Spain enters the tournament as the defending champion and currently holds the top ranking in the world standings, while the United States women's national team ranks second globally and seeks to add to its four World Cup titles. [1] Germany, a two-time champion in 2003 and 2011, ranks third. [1]
Fourteen teams have already secured their spots in the tournament, including Australia, Japan, China, South Korea, North Korea, the Philippines, Germany, France, Spain, Denmark, Argentina, Colombia, and New Zealand. [1] Brazil, as the host nation, receives an automatic qualification berth, though the country has never won a Women's World Cup title. [1]
This edition will mark the final tournament contested with 32 teams in the traditional format. [1] The next World Cup, scheduled for 2031, will expand to 48 teams and be jointly hosted by the United States, Mexico, Costa Rica, and Jamaica. [1]
In preparation for the competition, the United States is set to face Spain in two friendlies on home soil in October. [1] Brazil's squad captain Marta, at 41 years old, is part of the team after briefly retiring following the Paris Olympics before making a comeback to compete in the Copa America. [1]
