The Women’s World Cup opens Thursday in Australia and New Zealand, and continues until the final in Sydney on Aug. 20. The host nations will get things started, with New Zealand facing Norway and Australia meeting Ireland.
The time difference between — and within — Australia, New Zealand and other parts of the globe may make start times and even days blur during this tournament. So all the dates and times in this schedule are rendered in your local time, wherever in the world you are.
When do the games actually kick off? That can sometimes be more tricky for a variety of reasons, including time-zone math and television sleight of hand. We’re here to help: The times represent actual kickoff times — not when broadcasters start their coverage.
Here’s a guide to all the matches, along with broadcast and streaming options for viewers in the United States.
