Remarks:

  • The first decisive factor for the order according to FIFA criteria is the round reached (winner, finalist, third, semi-finalist, quarter-finalist, round of 16, participants in the preliminary round). If the round reached is the same, the number of points, the goal difference, the number of goals scored and the direct comparison decide in turn.
  • Decisions after penalty shootouts are counted as a tie in this statistic. As in all statistics, the hits scored on penalties are not counted as goals.

  • For the first time in the history of the Women's World Cup, none of the teams managed to win a knockout round game by more than two goals difference.
  • With the 1-0 defeat against Germany, Nigeria put the longest run without a win from Australia , which could not win a World Cup nine times between 1995 and 2003.

With the win against Canada on the last day of the group, Nigeria ended the negative series. Australia ended its negative streak on September 12, 2007 by beating Ghana .

Defeats

Out in the preliminary round

Knockout round

  • For the first time, the defending champion did not reach the semi-finals. Until the quarter-finals between Germany and Japan, the worst performance of a reigning world champion was fourth place for Norway at the 1999 World Cup.
  • The USA remain the only team that has made it into the semi-finals of a Women's World Cup as hosts (1999 and 2003). Like Germany in 2011, China (1991 and 2007) and Sweden (1995) both failed in the quarter-finals.
  • The first knockout game (France against England) was only decided after extra time and penalty shoot-out. The last extra time at a Women's World Cup was in the 2003 final , the last penalty shoot-out in the 1999 final . There were three penalty shoot-outs in total, more than at any previous women's World Cup.
  • For the second time since 1999, the World Cup final was decided by a penalty shoot-out. Never before had so few penalties been converted in a Women's World Cup penalty shootout (3: 1); Until then, even the losing team had always been able to convert at least three times. For Japan it was the first ever World Cup penalty shoot-out, for the USA the first defeat after one.
  • France, which was the only team to have reached a World Cup quarter-finals for the first time, was also able to move into the semi-finals; while Japan successively reached its first semi-final, first final and first world title.
  • The USA made it to the semi-finals for the sixth time in a row and thus at every World Cup to date. With their third entry into the finals after 1991 and 1999, they set the record for Germany (finalist 1995, 2003, 2007). This means that one of the two countries was in the final of every women's soccer World Cup, but never both at the same time.
  • With the USA and Japan, two teams faced each other in the final for the first time and had to accept a defeat in the preliminary round. Until then, three teams had made it to the finals after losing the first round (Norway 1991, Germany 1995, Sweden 2003), none of them could win the world championship. Japan is the first team to become world champions after a defeat.
  • Even after its sixth World Cup participation, Germany has never failed in the knockout round against any other team than that of the eventual world champion.
  • Of the four group winners of the preliminary round, three (England, Germany and Brazil) were eliminated in the quarter-finals, only Sweden made it to the next round.
  • For the first time, no current continental champion reached the semi-finals. The semi-finalists finished third in the last continental tournaments (Japan and USA), France and Sweden failed in the quarter-finals of the last European Championship .
