Emma Hayes will coach her first game as head coach of the U.S. Women's National Team when the Americans host South Korea in an international friendly on Saturday at Dick's Sporting Goods Park in the Denver area. Hayes, 47, was named USWNT head coach in November but finished the 2023-24 Women's Super League season in England with Chelsea before joining the USWNT. Hayes takes over a team that uncharacteristically failed in its last two major competitions: finishing third in the 2020 Summer Olympics and falling in the Round of 16 in the 2023 Women's World Cup.
Kickoff is set for 5 p.m. ET. The Americans are the -900 favorites in the latest USWNT vs. South Korea odds, with the Koreans the +1400 underdogs. A draw is priced at +700, and the over/under for total goals scored is 3.5. (For more soccer coverage, click here.)
