Team news & squads
USWNT team news
Andonovski may throw in a few rotations, and thus we may not get to see an exact replica of the XI the USWNT gaffer will play at the World Cup.Mallory Swanson got injury against Ireland in April, while midfielder Julie Ertz is making her full comeback after nearly two years.
Youngsters in the squad, such as Trinity Rodman or Alyssa Thompson, may be handed a big role as the baton has to be taken over somewhere.
Savanna DeMelo looks forward to her international debut, while the send-off game could be the 200th cap for Megan Rapinoe who announced her retirement after the World Cup.
