The 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup is finally upon—and there's a lot of history to be made this summer.
To start, the U.S. aims for a historic third straight title. Despite ushering in a new era and navigating injuries to several top players, the USWNT—led by some talented young stars—is all-in on a three-peat. The U.S's roster features a mix of nine mainstays with World Cup experience, like Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe, and 14 newcomers, which include a few surprise additions.
But before the Americans, the heavy favorites, go for gold, history has already been made elsewhere with this tournament. For the first time, the World Cup will be hosted by two nations—New Zealand and Australia—and will take place in 10 stadiums throughout nine cities. With an expanded tournament field of 32 teams, there will be no shortage of teams trying to dethrone the champs, including several powerhouses that are riding recent waves of success.
No matter who ends up victorious at the end, this World Cup will center around themes of progress and evolution, both on and off the pitch, and promises to fill the next month with a healthy dose of competition and serve as a reminder of why this game is growing so rapidly around the globe.
