The 2022 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup (Spanish: Copa Mundial Femenina Sub-20 de la FIFA Costa Rica 2022) was the 10th edition of the FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup, the biennial international women's youth football championship contested by the under-20 national teams of the member associations of FIFA, since its inception in 2002 as the FIFA U-19 Women's World Championship (the age limit was raised from 19 to 20 in 2008). The tournament was held in Costa Rica, which would have hosted the 2020 edition before it was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] It was the second time that Costa Rica hosted a FIFA tournament after the 2014 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup.
Japan were the defending champions. The opening match played at the tournament was contested between Costa Rica and Australia at Estadio Nacional de Costa Rica, San José. The final was held on 28 August 2022. For the third time in FIFA football tournaments,[a] and the first time for the youth tournaments, there was a back-to-back final between the two same teams.
This was the final edition to feature 16 teams before expanded to 24 teams in 2024 in Colombia.
