Explaining the new Women's World Cup mascot Women's World Cup 2023 tournament formatFor the first time in Women's World Cup history, the 2023 edition will have an expanded field of 32 teams competing — eight more than the previous tournament. That expansion means more matches will be played than ever before with 64 to take place across Australia and New Zealand. With two extra groups added to the mix for 2023, only the top-two teams will advance to the knockout stages. In 2019, the four best third-placed sides also progressed to the Round of 16, but that won't be the case in 2023.
When do Women's World Cup matches start in Australia and New Zealand?Kickoff times for the 2023 tournament have been released by FIFA and they are staggered across the group stage to ensure multiple world time zones can be accommodated. The July-August window of the Women's World Cup falls in the winter season in Australia and New Zealand, so daytime heat won't be an issue. Women's World Cup 2023 kickoff times*
