The United States Women’s National Team has reached the end of the group stage at the 2024 Olympic Women’s Football Tournament, looking to contend for a gold medal. Advancement to the knockout phase was secured with victories over Zambia (3-0) and Germany (4-1), but seeding is still of the utmost importance. Entering the competition for a fifth time, Australia is looking to throw a wrench into the works and also qualify for the quarterfinals. The Stade Vélodrome in Marseille – a 67,394-seat venue with an AirFibr hybrid grass surface – will host the match.

USA vs. Australia, 2024 Olympic Women’s Tournament: Scouting Australia

After winning their first two games at the Olympic Games, the U.S. women's national team will go for top spot in Group B on Wednesday against Australia. The U.S. opened their tournament with a 3-0 win over Zambia and more impressively, a 4-1 win over Germany. The team's attacking powers were on display in both games, with the promising front three of Mallory Swanson, Sophia Smith and Trinity Rodman delivering in a big way so far in France. Swanson leads the pack with three goals, her first at the Olympics since making her debut in the competition eight years ago.

Emma Hayes took a risk by starting Sam Coffey against Australia on Wednesday. Early on, it became clear that it didn’t pay off.
