We have reached the final weekend of the 2023 Women’s World Cup, and we begin with the match that no one wants to play. The 3rd place match takes place this morning in Brisbane, and Australia and Sweden will have to set aside the heartbreak they experienced from losing their semifinals to go on the field one more time to try and claim 3rd place in the tournament.
This is a familiar match for Sweden, as they have played in the 3rd place match 3 times previously, including in 2019. They have won the match each time they’ve appeared in it, and they’ll hope to bring that same magic to win their final match.
