USA team news
With a talent pool as deep as theirs, the USWNT consistently boasts an array of top-tier players, no matter the tournament. While some key names—Trinity Rodman, Sophia Smith, Mallory Swanson and Naomi Girma—are missing from the squad, the return of Catarina Macario provides a massive lift for head coach Emma Hayes.
Leading the charge in midfield is Lindsey Horan, with 17-year-old Lily Yohannes eager to stake her claim for a regular role. A wave of newcomers is also making an impression, including Michelle Cooper, who earned her first senior call-up this month, alongside Tara McKeown and Claire Hutton, both of whom were involved in last month's training camps.
In defense, 19-year-old Gisele Thompson makes her senior debut, joining forces with her older sister Alyssa, who has been a part of the squad since 2022. This marks just the third sibling duo to be named in a USWNT roster together.
Perhaps the most intriguing storyline surrounds thegoalkeeping position, as Hayes begins the process of finding Alyssa Naeher's successor. The squad features just two keepers—Jane Campbell and Mandy McGlynn—both of whom are expected to get a chance to stake their claim in between the sticks.
Colombia team news
Colombia may be the lowest-ranked team in the tournament, but they are a nation on the rise, and a quick glance at their squad explains why.
Mayra Ramirez and Linda Caicedo are the crown jewels of this side—nightmares for defenders when in full flight—and both enter the competition in red-hot form.
Beyond them, Catalina Usme and Leicy Santos bring experience and quality, while teenage defensive prodigy Ana Guzman is another name to watch as she continues her rapid ascent.
