Italy women's national football team

The Italy women's national football team represent Italy in international women's association football competitions. It is run by the Italian Football Association. Italy has qualified for the Women's European Championship more than three times and the FIFA Women's World Cup at least once.

Italy has failed to qualify for every FIFA Women's World Cup since 2003; but has came so close in 2011, losing closely in a two-legged playoff to the United States, in which most people predicted Mexico to go to the playoff.

The Italians qualified for two World Cups, the first edition in 1991 and the second time in 1999.

They are trying to qualify for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada. They advanced to the final to play the Netherlands, after drawing Ukraine, and coming behind from two Vira Dyatel goals. If Italy wins the second leg in their home after drawing the first leg with the Netherlands, Italy will qualify for the first time in 16 years since 1999 (this happened to Colombia from 1998 to 2014).
