The Cyprus Cup 2013 was the 6th edition of the women's football tournament , which has been held annually for national teams since 2008, and took place from March 3 to 14, 2013, as before, at various venues in the Republic of Cyprus . The tournament was organized by the English, Dutch and Scottish associations. Defending champions France, who won the final against Canada 2-0 last year, withdrew their participation immediately after the draw for this year's European Championship because too many European teams are participating in Cyprus.

The venues were the GSP Stadium in Nicosia , the GSZ Stadium in Larnaka and the Tasos Markou in Paralimni .

Twelve national teams took part in the tournament. The eight teams with the highest ratings formed groups A and B, the four weaker teams formed group C. First, the teams in their group played each against each other for the placement. First the best score, then the direct comparison and only then the goal difference is decisive for the placement. Then proceed as follows:

  • Game for 11th place: The third and fourth placed teams in Group C.
  • Game for 9th place: The second-placed team in group C against the worse fourth-placed team in groups A or B.
  • Game for 7th place: Winner of group C against the better fourth-placed team in groups A or B.
  • Match for 5th place: The third-placed teams in groups A and B.
  • Match for 3rd place: The teams placed second in groups A and B.
  • Final game: The winners of groups A and B play for the tournament victory.

If it was a draw after the regular playing time of the placement games, there was no extra time , but a penalty shoot-out immediately afterwards .

As FIFA classified the games as "friendly", each team was allowed to make six substitutions per game.
