The U.S. Women’s National Team has its final chance to build chemistry and confidence this week before flying to France.
The U.S. Olympic Team faces Costa Rica on Tuesday, July 16 at Audi Field in Washington D.C. in the second and last send-off match before the team heads over to southern France to prepare for their Olympic group stage matches. The U.S. is coming off a 1-0 win over Mexico, with star striker Sophia Smith scoring the lone goal.
In this match, we’ll get to see whether U.S. coach Emma Hayes sticks with the starting 11 from the last match, or whether we see some squad experimentation, including Crystal Dunn playing at forward, Korbin Albert paired with Rose Lavelle, and Emily Sonnett partnered with Naomi Girma in the backline. Hayes may also want to test out Lynn Williams, who was added to the full 18-player squad this week after Catarina Macario had to withdraw due to injury.
Costa Rica enters the match with two wins and two defeats in their last four matches. In their last official match, Los Ticos pushed Canada to extra time in the CONCACAF W Gold Cup, though they ended up losing in the end. Los Ticos feature Angel City midfielder Raquel Rodriguez, former Florida State Seminole Gloriana Villalobos, and youngster Priscila Chinchilla.

USA Women vs. Costa Rica lineups & team news
With a short turnaround from the last friendly match, coach Emma Hayes may make a few changes to keep her squad fresh ahead of the Olympics.
Crystal Dunn, Korbin Albert, Jaedyn Shaw, and Emily Sonnet could all start, and Hayes may even use some of the alternates, like Croix Bethune, to give her main squad a rest if necessary.
Unfortunately, Catarina Macario was forced to withdraw from the Olympic roster due to “knee soreness” with Lynn Williams taking her place in the squad. Sam Coffey returned from an ankle injury recently and figures to play.
USWNT starting lineup (4-3-3): Naeher (GK) — Fox, Girma, Sonnet, Krueger — Lavelle, Coffey, Albert— Shaw, S. Smith, Dunn.
Costa Rica coach Benito Rubido has called up a squad with youth in midfield, especially after Raquel Rodriguez, but also plenty of experience along the backline and up top. Gabriela Guillen and Mariana Benavides both have more than 70 caps each, as does Melissa Herrera and Gloriana Villalobos. Rodriguez herself has more than a century of caps, which should give the young American midfielders Sam Coffey and Korbin Albert a huge test.
Costa Rica starting lineup (4-3-3): Solera (GK) — Guillen, Villalobos, Benavides, Elizondo — Valenciano, Rodriguez, Arias — Villalobos, Salas, Herrera.
USA Women vs. Costa Rica prediction
Even if Hayes goes to her bench, just on talent alone, the U.S. should be a favorite to win this match. With the competition for places up top, the U.S. strikers and wingers should be pushing to score as many as possible to ensure they get a starting spot in France.
Score prediction: USA Women 2-0 Costa Rica
