We’ve reached the big one. This morning, the 2023 Women’s World Cup will crown a champion when Spain takes on England in the final. Spain and England have done well to get to this point, the first Women’s World Cup final for each of them. They have a chance to add a star above their crest and for their nation to become just the second - after Germany - to win a World Cup on the men’s and women’s side.
England arrives as the favorite, having beaten co-hosts Australia in the semifinal to get to this stage. They see Lauren James return to the lineup, which will be a boost to their creative attack.
