The 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup is here, and it’s a big deal for soccer fans! This incredible tournament only happens every four years and brings together the best women’s soccer players from around the world. It started on Thursday and will continue until the final match on August 20, with a total of 64 exciting games.
This year is special because it’s the first time that two countries, Australia and New Zealand, are hosting the Women’s World Cup. These friendly neighbors are quite far away from many of us, so some of the games might be at odd times. But don’t worry; it’s a small price to pay for the excitement!
The Canadian team’s journey in the tournament begins on July 20th when they play against Nigeria. Here’s Canada’s full schedule, and all the times are in Eastern Daylight Time:
- July 20 – 10:30 PM – Canada vs. Nigeria
- July 26 – 8:00 AM – Canada vs. Ireland
- July 31 – 6:00 AM – Canada vs. Australia
This time, the Women’s World Cup has 32 teams, which is the most ever. They are divided into eight groups, each with four teams. The top two teams from each group will move on to the next stage, where they’ll compete in a knockout tournament.
If you’re wondering where to watch all these exciting matches in Canada, you can catch them on TSN and CTV. Plus, there are special viewing lounges at places like Toronto Eaton Centre and Eglinton Centre. These lounges are open to everyone, so you can join fellow soccer fans to cheer for your favorite teams and players.
The FIFA Women’s World Cup is a big deal, bringing together people who love soccer and even those who are just curious about the sport. The games are not only about what happens on the field; they’re also about the passion and excitement that fans bring to the stadiums and viewing lounges.
