The 2024 UEFA Women's Nations League final was a football match that determined the winners of the final tournament of the 2023–24 UEFA Women's Nations League. It was the first final of the international football competition involving the women's national teams of the member associations of UEFA. The match was held on 28 February 2024 at the Estadio de La Cartuja in Seville, Spain, and was contested by France and Spain.[1]
The final also determined which teams would join hosts France in the 2024 Summer Olympics. Normally, the two finalists qualify for the tournament, but because France reached the final, Spain took one qualification spot and the winner of the third place match between Netherlands and Germany determined the other qualification spot.[2][3][4][5]
Spain won the match 2–0 for their first UEFA Nations League title.[6][7]
