The 2018 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup was the sixth edition of the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup, the biennial international women's youth football championship contested by the under-17 national teams of the member associations of FIFA, since its inception in 2008.

The tournament was held in Uruguay from 13 November to 1 December 2018.[1][2] North Korea were the defending champions but were eliminated by Spain in the quarter-finals.

The final took place at the Estadio Charrúa, Montevideo between Spain and Mexico a rematch from the group stage in 2016. Spain won their first title, beating Mexico 2–1.

Host selection

[edit]

On 6 March 2014, FIFA announced that bidding had begun for the 2018 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup. Member associations interested in hosting must submit a declaration of interest by 15 April 2014, and provide the complete set of bidding documents by 31 October 2014.[3]

The following countries made official bids for hosting the tournament:[4]

The decision on the hosts was originally to be made at the FIFA Executive Committee meeting on 19–20 March 2015,[5] but no announcement was made after the meeting.

During FIFA president Gianni Infantino's visit to Uruguay in March 2016, Uruguay showed interest in organizing the event.[6] The FIFA Council appointed Uruguay as host on 10 May 2016.[1] This was the first FIFA tournament held in the country since the first men's World Cup in 1930, the first FIFA women's event held in Uruguay and the first FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup ever held in South America.

Qualified teams

[edit]

A total of 16 teams qualify for the final tournament. In addition to Uruguay who qualified automatically as hosts, the other 15 teams qualify from six separate continental competitions. The slot allocation was approved by the FIFA Council on 13–14 October 2016.[7]

Branding

[edit]

The emblem was launched on 16 November 2017 at the Palacio Legislativo in Montevideo. The emblem is inspired by the famous beach coastline and its shape of the tournament's trophy. It features the Uruguayan flower ceibo, the Candombe drummer and the sun from the national flag.[8]

Mascot

[edit]

The mascot named Capi was unveiled on 7 June 2018, she is inspired by a Uruguayan capybara.[9][10]

Slogan

[edit]

The slogan "Same Game, Same Emotion" was unveiled on 29 September 2018.[11]

Draw

[edit]

The official draw was held on 30 May 2018, 15:00 CEST (UTC+2), at the FIFA Headquarters in Zürich.[12][13][14][15][16] The teams were seeded based on their performances in previous U-17 Women's World Cups and confederation tournaments, with the hosts Uruguay automatically seeded and assigned to position A1. Teams of the same confederation could not meet in the group stage.

The identity of the three teams from CONCACAF were not known at the time of the draw, and were seeded based on the rankings of the three best-performing teams from the region in previous editions. They were assigned to the three places reserved for CONCACAF after the qualifying tournament was completed based on their rankings in the seeding formula (instead of their rankings in the qualifying tournament).[17][18]
