Along with the increase in teams and matches, FIFA expects the tournament to be the most attended standalone women’s sporting event in history, with more than 1 million tickets sold. Another outcome of the additional qualification slots is that eight women’s national teams — Haiti, Morocco, Panama, the Philippines, Portugal, Ireland, Vietnam and Zambia — will be participating in their first World Cup.
