The winner takes it all in the final round game of the 2025 SheBelieves Cup between the United States women's national team (USWNT) and Japan Women at the Snapdragon Stadium in California on Wednesday.
The Stars and Stripes will be eyeing their eighth title in the invitational tournament hosted by them annually. However, having finished runners-up against the hosts in 2023 in their best run at the SheBelieves Cup, Japan are in good form to battle for their first gold in their fifth appearance.
As Nils Nielsen's side leads the standings table on goal difference, it's a must-win tie for Emma Hayes' side while a draw is enough for Japan to lift the title.
