The 2006 FIFA U-20 Women's World Championship was held in Russia from 17 August to 3 September 2006. It was the officially recognized world championship for women's under-20 national association football teams. Matches were held in four Moscow stadiums (Dynamo, Lokomotiv, Podmoskovie Stadium and Torpedo Stadium) and one in Saint Petersburg (Petrovsky Stadium).
This was the third women's world youth championship organized by FIFA, but the first with an age limit of 20. The first two events, held in Canada in 2002 and Thailand in 2004, had an age limit of 19. FIFA changed the age limit to prepare for the creation of an under-17 championship in 2008.
North Korea won the tournament. They became the first Asian team to win a FIFA women's tournament and the first Asian football team to win any FIFA tournaments since Saudi Arabia's triumph in the 1989 FIFA U-16 World Championship. the official mascot, is a little fox called Alissa. It is a figure that is very popular in children's literature in Russia, and one frequently said to possess beauty, intelligence, speed and craftiness; traits it shares with many of Russia's promising young women footballers.
Alissa sports a football strip in the colours of the Russian flag, a fitting choice for the proud host country of this world championship. Naturally, it never goes anywhere without its loyal friend, a football, whose company it enjoys immensely. This lively little fox is unquestionably female, as demonstrated by Alissa's long tied-back hair and sports skirt, but then again this is a women's festival of football.
