CHICAGO (March 24, 2025) – The U.S. Women’s National Team will face the Republic of Ireland in two June matches, at DICK’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City, Colo. on Thursday, June 26 (7 p.m. MT / 9 p.m. ET on TBS, truTV and Max, Universo & Peacock in Spanish and on the radio on Westwood One Sports) and at TQL Stadium in Cincinnati on Sunday, June 29 (3 p.m. ET on TNT, truTV and Max, Universo & Peacock in Spanish and on the radio on Westwood One Sports). The USA will also play a third match in this window on July 2 with an opponent and venue to be announced.

These will be the first meetings with Ireland since April of 2023 when the USA swept a pair of games in Austin, Texas and St. Louis ahead of the FIFA Women’s World Cup. The Irish are a side chock full of players from England’s Women’s Super League like Arsenal FC’s Katie McCabe, the team captain, as well as long-time North Carolina Courage star Denise O’Sullivan.

U.S. head coach Emma Hayes coached her first USWNT game in at DICK’s Sporting Goods Park in the USA’s victory over Korea Republic on June 1, 2024. Colorado recently became the newest expansion city for the National Women’s Soccer League, and the club is slated to begin play in 2026.

“Ireland is one of the most difficult European teams to play against, so I’m happy we could get these games,” said Hayes. “We need to play teams that will push us and create an environment where our players have to solve problems and play under pressure. We’re still early in our process of building towards World Cup qualifying for ’27 and we still have a lot of growth to go as a team and as individuals, so these summer matches at these great soccer venues will once again provide a platform for the players to show their abilities to excel at a high level.”

Additional Notes:

  • The USA has met Ireland 15 times and has won every game.

  • Colorado is the home state of several current USWNT players in team captain Lindsey Heaps (Golden) and forwards Sophia Wilson (Windsor) and Mallory Swanson (Highlands Ranch).

  • This will be the USWNT’s ninth match all-time at DICK’s Sporting Goods Park, home to the Colorado Rapids of Major League Soccer. The USA is 7-0-1 at the venue with the most recent game being Emma Hayes’ debut last summer.

  • The first match in Denver for the U.S. Women came in 1999 after the famous World Cup victory when the world champions played at Mile High Stadium.

  • Cincinnati is the hometown of U.S. midfielder Rose Lavelle, who attended Mount Notre Dame High School.

  • The USA has played 23 games all-time in the state of Ohio, but this will be just the third at TQL Stadium, which opened in 2021 and is home to FC Cincinnati of MLS.

  • The USWNT last played at TQL Stadium in Sept. of 2023 vs. South Africa, a 3-0 win.

  • Ireland fell to Wales in its 2025 UEFA Women’s Euro Playoff series, 3-2, on aggregate and thus will miss the continental championship this summer, making it available to play the USA in this FIFA window.

  • Ireland head coach Carla Ward, a long-time head coach in the England Women’s Super League, served as a scout for Emma Hayes’ staff during the 2024 Olympics in France.
