2031 FIFA Women's World Cup
SportLightning replied to SportLightning's topic in FIFA World Cup / Bids
Costa Rica another one although they have hosted two FIFA Women's youth tournaments (U-17 in 2014 and U-20 in 2022). I think the national stadium in San José and Alajuela would host matches. The opening my guess would be Mexico City and the final in Los Angeles. -

No, it was a low risk bidder. It had many existing venues, got enough government support and Junior Pan Am Games experience. The Pan Am Games village, a new athletic stadium and a new arena need to be built. Rio's was a high risk cuz it didn't get enough government support, hotel problems and many new venues would've been built and some existing venues would've been used if Rio-Niteroi would've won. That's why Asuncion (which i was infavor of) won over Rio by 4 vote 28-24 (Same as 2027 bid which they lost to Lima).

Cape Verde qualified for the FIFA World Cup for the very first time.

Asuncion was a low risk bidder comparing to Rio-Niteroi. Maybe next time for Rio-Niteroi. They could bid for 2035, unless they're not interested for that year.

I hope Abuja is awarded the 2030 edition. -
Iraq had only made one FIFA World Cup appearance which is back in 1986 in Mexico. While UAE also yet to play this round has also had one appearance back in 1990 in Italy. If they top the groups which is unlikely, they could both make their 2nd appearance. If Oman tops, they will make their debut.

Egypt qualified for next year's edition after missing out on the 2022 edition in Qatar.

We await this friday as both Asuncion and Rio-Niteroi have met the requirments. Asuncion is the favorite to host because of Paraguay's strong government support, good experience at hosting this year's Junuior Pan American Games and good infrastructure. While Rio-Niteroi lacks Brazil's government support comparing to Asuncion's bid. Because of the Brazil bid facing government support lack, that could give Asuncion the 2031 edition this time after losing the 2027 edition to Lima.
