The United States Women’s National Team will be in St. Louis tomorrow for the 2nd and final match of the April international window against Ireland. The USWNT are coming off a 2-0 victory Saturday afternoon in Austin that came at the huge cost of forward Mallory Swanson suffering a torn patella tendon that, by most accounts, will keep her out of the 2023 Women’s World Cup. Alyssa Thompson joins the squad to replace Swanson, and the team tries to carry on without this year’s leading goalscorer.
Ireland provided a true test for the USWNT, with several scoring chances that barely missed and getting physical with their play.
