United States women’s national soccer team

The United States is the defending champion, having won the 2019 tournament in France. They are also the most successful team in the history of the Women’s World Cup, having won three titles in total. The USWNT is led by a number of world-class players, including Megan Rapinoe, Alex Morgan, and Carli Lloyd. They are also a very well-coached team, led by Vlatko Andonovski.

In addition to their past success, the USWNT is also coming off a strong qualifying campaign. They won all of their matches in the CONCACAF W Championship, outscoring their opponents by a combined score of 51-0. This performance showed that the USWNT is still the team to beat in women’s soccer.

Of course, there are other teams that could challenge for the title in 2023. France, England, and Spain are all strong contenders. However, the USWNT has the experience, the talent, and the coaching to make them the favorites to win the tournament.

The 2023 Women’s World Cup is sure to be a great tournament, and the USWNT will be the team to beat. They are the defending champions, they have a wealth of experience, and they are led by some of the best players in the world. If they can stay healthy and play their best soccer, they should be lifting the trophy in August.
