[[FIFA]] immediately granted the 2007 event to China, which means that no new host nation was chosen competitively until the voting was held for the [[2011 FIFA Women's World Cup|2011 Women's World Cup]]. The tournament opened with a record-breaking match in [[Shanghai]], as [[Germany women's national football team|Germany]] beat [[Argentina women's national football team|Argentina]] 11&ndash;0 to register the biggest win and the highest scoring match in [[FIFA Women's World Cup|Women's World Cup]] history. The tournament ended with Germany defeating [[Brazil women's national football team|Brazil]] 2&ndash;0 in the final, having never surrendered a goal in the entire tournament. The Germans became the first national team in [[FIFA Women's World Cup]] history to obtain two consecutive titles. ==Teams== {{main|FIFA Women's World Cup 2007 qualification}} {| table width=90% | width=50% valign="top" | ;Africa ([[Confederation of African Football|CAF]]) * {{fbw|NGA}} * {{fbw|GHA}} ;Asia ([[Asian Football Confederation|AFC]]) * {{fbw|CHN}} (host nation &mdash; automatically qualified) * {{fbw|AUS}} * {{fbw|PRK}} * {{fbw|JPN}} (defeated [[Mexico women's national football team|Mexico]] in AFC&ndash;CONCACAF playoffs) ;North America, Central America & Caribbean ([[CONCACAF]]) * {{fbw|CAN}} * {{fbw|USA}} | width=50% valign="top" | ;Europe ([[UEFA]]) * {{fbw|NOR}} * {{fbw|SWE}} * {{fbw|GER}} * {{fbw|DEN}} * {{fbw|ENG}} ;Oceania ([[Oceania Football Confederation|OFC]]) * {{fbw|NZL}} ;South America ([[CONMEBOL]]) * {{fbw|ARG}} * {{fbw|BRA}} |} ==Venues== {{StadiumWorldCup2007WomenChina|float=right}} The venues selected to host the competition are:<ref>[http://service.china.org.cn/link/wcm/Show_Text?info_id=179735&p_qry=women%20and%20football Soccer: China Set up LOC for Women's World Cup], from Xinhua News Agency, retrieved [[25 September]] [[2006]]</ref> {| class=wikitable style="text-align:center" !City !Venues !Capacity |- |[[Tianjin]] |[[Tianjin Olympic Centre Stadium]] |60,000 |- |[[Wuhan]] |[[Wuhan Stadium]] |55,000 |- |[[Hangzhou]] |[[Yellow Dragon Sports Center|Yellow Dragon Stadium]] |51,000 |- |[[Chengdu]] |[[Chengdu Sports Center]] |40,000 |- |[[Shanghai]] |[[Hongkou Stadium]] |34,000 (upgrade in progress) |} ==Squads== {{for|a list of all players that participated in the final tournament|2007 FIFA Women's World Cup squads}} ==Referees== {{for|a list of the international referees that officiated at the 2007 tournament|2007 FIFA Women's World Cup officials}} ==Coverage== Numerous TV stations across the world provide coverage of the tournament.
