In their first competitive game under new head coach Emma Hayes, the United States women’s national team begin their bid to reclaim Olympic gold with a group-stage clash against Zambia.

With four titles, the USWNT are the most decorated team in the History of the Olympic women’s soccer tournament. However, the Stars and Stripes have endured disappointment at the last two Summer Games, exiting in the quarter-finals at Rio 2016 and finishing third at Tokyo 2020.

The USWNT are also out to bounce back from last year’s World Cup debacle: the four-time global champions suffered their earliest ever elimination at the tournament, going out in the last 16 after a shootout defeat to Sweden.

Zambia, meanwhile, are appearing in the Olympics’ women’s soccer competition for the second time, having made their debut at the covid-delayed Games three years ago. The Copper Queens were knocked out in the group stage in Japan, where they suffered heavy defeats to Spain and the tournament hosts - but finished with a win, beating Costa Rica 3-1.

The USWNT and Zambia have been drawn in Group B, together with Australia and Germany.
