The United States and Japan are set to meet for the second straight FIFA Women's World Cup final. The two sides will take the field Sunday in a rematch of the 2011 title game, where Japan knocked off the USA 2–2 on penalties (3–1).

The U.S. haven't won a title since 1999, when they defeated China. This year's championship game marks a record fourth trip to the final for the USA, which will look to set another women's soccer record with a third World Cup victory.

USA-Japan kicks off from Vancouver at 7 p.m. ET Sunday. The game will be televised on Fox.
