For both finalists, this was the first appearance in a Women's World Cup final. Both teams were looking to become only the second country to win both men's and women's World Cups – Germany accomplished the feat in 2003 – as well as becoming the first team representing UEFA to win the tournament since Germany in 2007. This was the third all-European final in the Women's World Cup, after the 1995 and 2003 finals, both of which were also contested between potential new champions.
