The United States women's national team (USWNT) wrap up their October window against Colombia on Sunday evening at Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego.
The game comes only two days after they played out a closely-contested goalless draw in Sandy (Utah) in the first game of the double header between the two. In what was a tight affair, the best chance of the night fell to Alex Morgan as she struck a 44th minute penalty off the woodwork.
Both the USWNT and Colombia are two of five teams that have already qualified for the 2024 Summer Olympics, joined by Brazil, Canada, and hosts France. With the tournament only nine months away, now is an ideal time to begin preparations for Paris 2024, with the USWNT on the lookout for their next permanent head coach.

Team news & squads
United States team news
Forging ahead without recently-retired Megan Rapinoe and Julie Ertz, Interim coach Twila Kilgore has called up a largely inexperienced squad as she looks to get more younger players some time on the field ahead of next year’s Olympics.
Veteran defender Becky Sauerbrunn played the entire second half for the group in her return to the team. The 45-minute shift was her first with the squad since April, and could line up in defense from the get-go here.
San Diego Wave attacker Jaedyn Shaw came on in the 87th minute to make her USWNT debut, and the 19-year-old will be hoping to get more minutes here.
USWNT possible XI:Naeher; Huerta, Girma, Sauerbrunn, Fox; Coffey, Horan; Rodman, DeMelo, Smith; Hatch
| Position | Players |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers: | Kingsbury, Murphy, Naeher |
| Defenders: | Cook, Dunn, Fox, Girma, Huerta, Krueger, Sauerbrunn, Sonnett, Vignola |
| Midfielders: | Coffey, DeMelo, Horan, Moultrie, Sanchez, Sullivan |
| Forwards: | Fishel, Hatch, Morgan, Purce, Rodman, Shaw, Smith, Thompson, Williams |
Colombia team news
Colombia boss Angelo Olivares would be fairly pleased to open their two-game series against the U.S. with a clean sheet. Player rotation could come into thinking for Colombia heading into the second game, but perhaps not in their attack, which is led by one of the burgeoning stars of women's soccer in 18-year-old Linda Caicedo, who plays her club soccer at Real Madrid.
