The 2023 Women’s World Cup group stage will whittle the field for the tournament down from 32 teams to 16, with the top two teams in each group advancing to the knockout phase.
The co-hosts will take part in the first two games of the tournament, with New Zealand facing Norway and Australia taking on Ireland in the early-morning hours of July 20 in the United States.
Those games will kick off a 15-day period during which there will be between two and four games every day. Kickoff times will vary depending where you are in the United States but in general, games will begin at various times between the late night and early morning.
If teams are tied on points, goal difference is the first tiebreaker followed by goals scored. After that, it will go to head-to-head results between the teams that are tied, followed by goal difference between the teams that are tied and then total goals between the teams that are tied.
If teams are still tied, then it will go to a tiebreaker based on the number of yellow and red cards each team received and then, finally, to drawing of lots.
Here is how the 2023 World Cup group stage will shape up, with kickoff times and English-language TV information.
