The United States Women’s National Soccer Team (USWNT) is gearing up for the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup in France this summer and has announced a series of pre-tournament friendlies against Ireland. The USWNT will play two matches against the Irish team, one in California and one in New Jersey.
The USWNT has a long history of success in international soccer, having won the Women’s World Cup three times and the Olympic gold medal four times. The team is currently ranked first in the world by FIFA and is looking to defend their title in France this summer. The USWNT is led by star players such as Alex Morgan, Megan Rapinoe, and Carli Lloyd, who are all expected to be part of the squad for the tournament.
The two friendlies against Ireland will give the USWNT a chance to fine-tune their tactics and strategies before the World Cup. The matches will also provide an opportunity for the players to get used to playing together as a team, as well as to build chemistry and camaraderie.
The first match will take place on May 12th at Avaya Stadium in San Jose, California. The second match will be held on May 16th at Red Bull Arena in Harrison, New Jersey. Both matches are expected to be highly competitive and will be a great opportunity for the USWNT to prepare for the World Cup.
The USWNT is looking forward to these matches against Ireland and is confident that they will be able to use them to their advantage as they prepare for the World Cup. With the tournament just around the corner, these friendlies will be an important part of the team’s preparations and will hopefully help them retain their title in France this summer.
