With a relatively inexperienced roster and a new coach, the USWNT faces its most unpredictable tournament in years.

Your challenge? Build the ultimate USWNT goal machine. Select players, then compare your roster to the most recent one chosen by head coach Vlatko Andonovski.

To win, you’ll need as many Expected Goals (xG) as possible and an airtight defense. Player stats are from their career with the national team. Game on!

ESPN collected metrics for every member of the USWNT’s World Cup 2023 roster and chose three based on player position and how they factor into xG. Positions that don’t typically score goals can still contribute to the overall xG. Results are based on how your lineup fared compared to the starting XI from the USWNT’s send-off game against Wales. ESPN used career data for national team friendly and competitive matches for each player through June 2023. Some players have limited experience with the USWNT and their data reflects that.
