USWNT Faces Japan in SheBelieves Cup Finale

Hayes stated, "Did we do everything we set out to do in terms of simulating a tournament setting? Yes. Did we increase the players' learning around our blueprint? Yes. Did we deepen the pool and the playing opportunities under pressure? Yes. They were our three objectives.”

Now, the challenge is to overcome a strong Japanese side that has been the standout team of the tournament. This high-stakes match will provide valuable insights for Hayes as she prepares for the 2027 World Cup.
