- Two nations will instead focus on securing 2031 tournament
- Brazil to rival joint bid for Belgium, Germany and Netherlands
The United States and Mexico have withdrawn their joint bid to host the 2027 Fifa Women’s World Cup. The two nations will instead focus on securing the 2031 edition, their national governing bodies said on Monday.
The decision comes just weeks before the Fifa Congress chooses the tournament hosts on 17 May. It leaves Brazil and a joint bid from Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands as the remaining candidates to host the 2027 event.
