The 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup Final is a future football match to decide the winner of the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup. It will be the eighth time the final is played for the FIFA Women's World Cup, a tournament for women's teams of the member countries of FIFA. The match will be played at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais in Décines-Charpieu, France, on 7 July 2019 between the United States, the champions last time, and the Netherlands, in their first final. The United States won 2–0, earning their second consecutive and fourth overall Women's World Cup title, with second-half goals scored by co-captain Megan Rapinoe from the penalty spot and Rose Lavelle.
