Spain vs. England: Top Highlights from 2023 Women's World Cup Final

And then there was one.

In a rematch of the Women's Euros 2022 quarterfinals, Spain defeated England 1-0 in Sunday's World Cup final to avenge the Euros loss.

Both sides had memorable journeys to get to this point in Australia.

Spain recovered from finishing second in Group C by smashing Switzerland in the Round of 16 (5-1), beating the Netherlands in extra time (2-1) and getting past Sweden in the semifinals (2-1).

England, meanwhile, cruised to the top spot in Group D, had to survive penalties against Nigeria in the Round of 16 and knocked off Colombia (2-1) in the quarterfinals and hosts Australia (3-1) in the semis.
