USWNT to play Spain in friendlies ahead of 2027 World Cup

The United States Women's National Team (USWNT) and Spain are set to play two friendlies on October 10 and October 13 at Audi Field in Washington and Subaru Park in Pennsylvania, respectively. These matches serve as preparation for the 2027 World Cup, with Spain already qualified and the U.S. needing to secure passage through the Concacaf W Championship in November. U.S. coach Emma Hayes emphasized the importance of testing against a top opponent like Spain ahead of World Cup qualifying. This will be the first meeting between the teams since October 2022, when Spain won 2-0.
