The iconic Sydney Opera House lights up to highlight the joint bid from Australia and New Zealand in the final hours before FIFA decides on the venue for the 2023 Women's World Cup. 

The co-confederation bid is favored to win in a two-way contest with Colombia following the late withdrawal of a bid from Japan. The tournament is due to be staged from July 10 to August 20 in 2023, and will see the field expanded from 24 to 32 teams.
