2023 World Cup: The complete USWNT schedule, from group stage to another possible final

The 2023 World Cup is finally here and, again, the U.S. women’s national team is expected to be the champion.

Led by Alex Morgan, the Americans have won the past two World Cups and bring a roster to this year’s tournament in Australia and New Zealand that mixes veterans with fresh talent. They’ll be without captain and key defender Becky Sauerbrunn, but youngsters like Emily Fox should help ease her absence.

The USWNT’s journey to a third straight World Cup crown — which would be their fifth overall — begins on July 21, when it kicks off play in Group E with a match against Vietnam.

From that match through the final, here is the complete schedule we can expect for the Americans at the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand:

  • Group E match vs. Vietnam | July 21, 9 p.m. ET
  • Group E match vs. Netherlands | July 26, 9 p.m. ET
  • Group E match vs. Portugal | Aug. 1, 3 a.m. ET
  • Should the U.S. win Group E, it will face the runner-up of Group G on Aug. 5 at 10 p.m. ET. If the U.S. is the runner-up in Group E, the Americans will face the winner of Group G on Aug. 6 at 5 a.m. ET.
  • The USWNT would then play in a quarterfinal on Aug. 10 or 11.
  • The semifinals are Aug. 15 and 16.
  • The final — played in Sydney, Australia — is on Aug. 20 with a kickoff time of 6 a.m. ET. Stock up on coffee if the Americans advance that far again.
