There is nothing better to end a great year than to look back and reminisce about the epic USWNT moments. From fantastic goals to players getting their very first call-up, we’re here for all of it. Here are some of our favorite moments from the past year.
SheBelieves Cup
All the way back in February, the USWNT took home the SheBelieves Cup in a match against Iceland. Two goals from Catarina Macario, two from Mal Pugh, and one from Kristie Mewis sealed the deal in a 5-0 win for the USA.

Rose Lavelle has been a joy to watch for the USWNT this year. From an absolutely ridiculous header in their game against Nigeria to megging a German defender just a month ago, Rose Lavelle is on top of her game right now.
Alyssa Thompson’s debut
Of all the new faces on the USWNT this year, Alyssa Thompson was one of our favorites. Still in high school, the attacker had previously played on the youth national team. We love to see these younger players being brought in and getting some experience.
