The United States women’s national team kicks off a busy week of friendly matches on Thursday against Iceland.

While the squad features many familiar names, it also includes several newcomers. Hayes has summoned six players who may make their international debuts over the week.
The Americans are eager to extend their impressive form, regardless of the lineup on the field. They are currently enjoying a 15-game unbeaten streak, which includes six consecutive victories.
