The two-time defending champion United States team opens its 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup campaign with a match against Vietnam at Eden Park in Auckland, New Zealand on Friday (9 p.m. ET on FOX and the FOX Sports app).
The USWNT is looking to become the first team on either the men’s or women’s side to win three straight FIFA World Cups. The U.S. is currently ranked No. 1 in the FIFA World Rankings and is a heavy favorite against No. 32 Vietnam, which is playing in its first-ever Women’s World Cup match.
