FIFA Women's World Cup Final LIVE SCORE: England are all set to take on Spain in the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023 final at the Stadium Australia in Sydney. It is a game which is being looked upon by many as a match between two teams who are opposite of each other. While on one there there is a team with a seasoned and celebrated coach, on the other there is a coach in the middle of a controversy with even allegations of mismanagement against him. However, none of it will actually have an impact for both the maiden world cup finalists.It will all come down to the players when the whistle blows and for the next 90 minutes or probably a bit more the team that plays better football will be crowned as the World Champion for the first time. Before the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023 Final, a look at the head-to-head record between the two teams suggests that it is the England side who enjoy a slight advantage. The two teams have locked horns on 11 occasions since 2007 and England have emerged victorious on 6 of these occasions.Even in their most recent meeting in the 2022 European Championship quarterfinal, it was England who edged past Spain and from there on went on to emerge as the European champion. For Spain, this is their first final at the senior level but having side that there are players in the teams that have played finals in age group teams before graduating into this level. The pressure here would be different though and England would want to take advantage of that.From Spain's point of view Salma Celeste Paralluelo Ayingono and Aitana Bonmati will be some of the players to watch out for while English stars would bank on Lauren Hemp and Lauren James to do well given how crucial they are to the team's chances.All in all, this should be cracking contest.

Brilliant partnership between Hemp and Toone on that occasion. But no damage done. Less power in that shot which results an easy take by the keeper.

WHAT A SAVE FROM Mary Earps! Spain almost found the back of the net through a shot from Redondo but the English golie blocks it millimetres away from the line. Biggest goal chance from Spain so far. Massive chance at either ends but none resulting in a goal so far. That's how tightly this game is being played.
