It’s been a little more than a month since the French men’s national team took home the 2018 World Cup title, defeating Croatia 4-2. Now that the men’s national teams have all gone home, the female footballers of the world are gearing up for their international tournament. In preparation for the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup in France, the American women’s national team is set to play a friendly match with Chile at Avaya Stadium. It’s the final friendly before the ladies head off to the 2018 CONCACAF Women’s Championship, where they will compete for a berth in the French tournament.
