The U.S. Women's National Team (USWNT) is set to play two friendly matches against the Republic of Ireland, announced by the U.S. Soccer Federation on Monday, scheduled for June 26 in Commerce City, Colorado, and June 29 in Cincinnati, Ohio. These matches mark the first encounters since April 2023, where the USWNT won both games. USWNT head coach Emma Hayes emphasized the importance of these matches for team development ahead of the 2027 World Cup qualifiers. The USWNT holds a perfect record against Ireland, having won all 15 prior meetings. Tickets for the matches will be available to the public on March 28, with presales for U.S. Soccer Insiders.
