"Having shown every Women's World Cup on the BBC since 1999, we were very happy to extend our partnership with Fifa for the 2023 tournament in Australia and New Zealand," said Barbara Slater, director of BBC Sport.

"The growth of the women's game has been extraordinary, demonstrated by the vast numbers who watched our coverage of the Euros last year.

"United across television, radio and online, the BBC is now preparing to deliver fans an unrivalled package of live match coverage, highlights, analysis and digital content."

England's group game against Denmark at the World Cup will be shown live on the BBC.

Sarina Wiegman's European champions face the Danes in Sydney on Friday, 28 July (09:30 BST kick-off) - six days after their opening match against Haiti (10:30).

Slater added: "Fans can enjoy exclusive live coverage of England's crucial group game against Denmark, the key last-16 games and both World Cup semi-finals.

"The matches will be brought to you by an outstanding squad of the best presenters, experts and ex-players, including a number of legendary Lionesses."
