It was played between Japan and the United States, in a rematch of the 2011 final. The stakes were high for both sides: if the United States won the match, it would be the only country to have won in three Women's World Cup finals; if Japan had won instead, then it would be the first team, men's or women's, to win twice under the same coach (Norio Sasaki for Japan) since Vittorio Pozzo led Italy to victory in the 1934 World Cup and the 1938 World Cup. Ultimately, the United States won 5–2, winning its first title in 16 years and becoming the first team to win three Women's World Cup finals. Because of the expanded competition format, it was the first time the finalists had played a seventh game in the tournament. The United States had previously reached the final game three times, winning twice (in 1991 and 1999) and placing as runners up in 2011. This was Japan's second successive final appearance and was their attempt to be the first country to successfully defend a title since Germany in the 2007 World Cup. Both teams were undefeated throughout the tournament, with the United States only conceding one goal in the six matches leading up to the final and Japan winning all of their matches in regular time. Background Before this tournament, the two finalists had met each other three times in World Cup play. The United States beat Japan 3–0 in the group stage in 1991 and won 4–0 in a 1995 quarter-final match, while Japan bettered the United States 3–1 in a penalty shoot-out in the 2011 World Cup final after the match was tied 2–2 after extra time. The United States won the final 2–1 in the gold medal match at the 2012 Summer Olympics. The last meeting between the two teams was at the 2014 Algarve Cup, which ended in 0–0 draw, after the previous Algarve Cup between the two teams was won by Japan 1–0.Women's World Cup, USA vs. Japan: Know your opponent http://www.sportingnews.com/soccer/story/2015-07-02/womens-world-cup-usa-japan-matchup-best-players-record-history sportingnews.com 3 July 2015 24 September 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20150924135201/http://www.sportingnews.com/soccer/story/2015-07-02/womens-world-cup-usa-japan-matchup-best-players-record-history dead Both the United States and Japan began the 2015 Women's World Cup as favorites to win the tournament.Women's World Cup predictions: U.S., Germany, Japan are favorites https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/soccer/2015/06/05/womens-world-cup-predictions-usa-canada/28514899/ USA Today 2 July 2015 The United States was ranked second in the FIFA Women's World Rankings, while Japan was ranked fourth.https://www.fifa.com/fifa-world-ranking/ranking-table/women/rank=549/index.html https://web.archive.org/web/20150214063832/http://www.fifa.com/fifa-world-ranking/ranking-table/women/rank=549/index.html dead 14 February 2015 Women's Ranking (27 March 2015) FIFA.com 27 March 2015 The United States entered the 2015 final as two-time world champions, having won the first and third edition of the Women's World Cup.
