It’s been less than a year since the FIFA Men’s World Cup champion was crowned in Argentina. Now the women get their turn. But what are the differences between the two tournaments?
The last time the U.S. men's national team faced Canada was in June and saw the former win 2-0 to claim the 2023 Nations League title.
Now in July, the rivals will meet again for the chance to play in the semifinal of the 2023 Concacaf Gold Cup, though the roster circumstances are much different this time.
The U.S. doesn't have most of its marquee players who are abroad in Europe, with goalkeeper Matt Turner the lone starter from the 2022 World Cup squad. The roster is mostly comprised of young players hoping to breakthrough with the A team, sprinkled in with some veterans.
