Football at the 2004 Summer Olympics – Women's qualification

The qualification for women's football tournament at the 2004 Summer Olympics.

This is the first Olympic women's football tournament whose participants in the finals are determined separately from FIFA Women's World Cup: each of the six continental confederations determines the teams playing the finals[1].

Qualified teams

The following teams have qualified for the final tournament.

Confederation (Region)BerthsQualified Teams
Host nation (automatically qualified) 1
UEFA (Europe) 2
CONMEBOL (South America) 1
CONCACAF (North, Central America and Caribbean) 2
CAF (Africa) 1
AFC (Asia) 2
OFC (Oceania) 1

UEFA (Europe)

Due to scheduling issues, UEFA did not hold a separate qualifying competition; UEFA instead announced that the top two UEFA teams in 2003 FIFA Women's World Cup were to qualify for the Olympics. As a result, the World Cup winners  Germany and the runners-up  Sweden qualified for the Olympics[1] (together with the hosts  Greece).

CONMEBOL (South America)

CONMEBOL did not hold the qualifying competition for the one spot but nominated  Brazil, the winners of 2003 South American Women's Football Championship and 2003 Pan American Games, as the South American representative[2].

CONCACAF (North, Central America and Caribbean)
