‘Dream come true’ Brazil selected to host 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup.

Sports

For the first time in the nation’s history, Brazil will host the FIFA Women’s World Cup in 2027. The decision was announced at the 74th FIFA Congress in Bangkok, Thailand. Brazil received 119 votes to beat a joint bid from Belgium, Netherlands and Germany. The latter received 78 votes. Debinha, who joined the Current as a free agent in 2023, has 61 caps with the Brazil national team. That includes a pair of World Cups in 2019 and 2023. She is one of a dozen players from Brazil competing in the National Women’s Soccer League this season.


      Brazil legend Marta echoed her sentiment in a statement posted on social media.

      The United States and Mexico were also in the running until withdrawing three weeks ago to focus on the 2031 tournament. South Africa made the same decision in Nov. 2023.
