Follow along below for live updates of the day’s matches.

United States vs. Chile – 12 p.m. ET

In their first-ever Women’s World Cup, Chile dropped their opening match to Sweden 2-0. They face the tournament favorite United States, who showed no mercy in their win against Thailand Tuesday.

All-time, Team USA has only faced Chile twice, both in Summer of 2018. The two countries are in different FIFA confederations so the matches were friendlies, not World Cup qualifiers. On goals from five different players, the U.S. women won by a combined 7-0 score.

The eyes of the world will be watching the U.S. women, who faced backlash for what some deemed unsportsmanlike conduct in their blowout victory. However, there was also a touching moment of sportsmanship by Carli Lloyd after that game that seem to have gotten overlooked.
