On May 31, 2025, the US Women’s National Team (USWNT) will face China PR at Allianz Field in St. Paul, Minnesota. The match is set to kick off at 4:37 p.m. CT and will be broadcasted across multiple platforms, including TBS, Max, and Universo, with Spanish coverage available on Peacock. Fans can tune in via radio on Westwood One Sports.
The USWNT lineup includes several notable players. Lindsey Heaps will captain the team for the 38th time, marking her 166th career cap. Emily Sonnett, with 108 caps, and Crystal Dunn, reaching her 160th cap, are also key figures in the squad. Dunn’s significant experience makes her one of only 23 American female players to earn 160 caps.
Phallon Tullis-Joyce will make her second start, building on a strong performance from earlier this year when she played against Brazil. This match is particularly significant for Lo’eau LaBonta, who, if she plays, will become the oldest player to debut for the USWNT, surpassing the previous mark set by McCall Zerboni.
Remarkably, Naomi Girma is making her first start of 2025 as she returns after missing the team’s first three matches. At just 24 years old, she is considered a leading defender globally, having contributed to Chelsea’s recent treble victory. The young talent Lily Yohannes, turning 18 soon, is set to earn her seventh cap, while Avery Patterson will make her second start after displaying her skills with the Houston Dash.
The team boasts an average of 49.1 caps this match, reflecting a blend of seasoned veterans and emerging stars, which is encouraging for the future of US women’s soccer. With the players’ achievements and the excitement around the game, fans are eager to see how this mix of experience and youth will perform against a formidable opponent like China PR. This match promises to be a thrilling opportunity as the USWNT continues to build momentum ahead of future competitions.
