The world of sports has turned topsy-turvy with the coronavirus putting just about everything on hold indefinitely, and U.S. Soccer is in a state of crisis after the abrupt resignation of president Carlos Cordeiro.
Buried in all that, however, is that the U.S. women’s national team won the SheBelieves Cup on Wednesday, sweeping the four-team friendly tournament and putting the Olympic field on notice.
The USWNT had its April friendlies canceled, and we can only speculate whether the Olympics will start on time, if at all. But for now, the SheBelieves Cup remains the best opportunity to assess where the USWNT is at ahead of a major tournament.
