Coming off a 1-0 win over Portugal to start the 2021 WNT Summer Series, presented by AT&T 5G, the U.S. Women’s National Team returns to the field on June 13, taking on Jamaica at 10 p.m. ET/9 p.m. ET. The game against the Reggae Girlz, which will be played at Houston’s BBVA Stadium, will be broadcast on FS1, with official kickoff slated for 10:15 p.m. ET/9:15 p.m. CT.
Portugal and Nigeria will meet in the first match of the Sunday doubleheader, with kickoff at 7:15 p.m. ET. That game will be available via live stream at ussoccer.com/live.
The USA extended its unbeaten streak to 40 consecutive matches with last Thursday’s 1-0 victory over Portugal on the opening match day of the Summer Series. The victory marked the 16th consecutive home win for the Americans and pushed the USA to 7-0-1 on the year while outscoring the opposition 23-1.
Following the game against Jamaica, the USA head to Austin to close out the Summer Series on Wednesday against Nigeria. The June 16 game against the Super Falcons (9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT on ESPN2) will be the first soccer game at the brand new, state-of-the-art Q2 Stadium, home of Major League Soccer’s newest club, Austin FC. The Summer Series finale, which is expected to be a sell-out, will be played three days before Austin FC plays its first MLS match at home.

Is Megan Rapinoe still in USWNT? Until she’s not on the team, I’m not supporting the team.
i mean who the ef is megan rappinone, or how ever you spell her last name? A lesbian with bad hair color who can kick a ball yet the media looks to her for answers...
With EURO 21 on for the next month, no one cares about womens soccer. Actually, no one cares about it in first place.

Rappinoe was there, last night, suited up as a 'ready reserve', pruple hair and all.
Only saw her at the post-game, congratulatory celebration.
They are probably saving Rappinoe for the Austin game, as the game schedule is quite tight with games in quick succession.

The U.S. women’s national team is running out of new accomplishments. Creating fresh mountains to climb becomes the only remaining challenge for the most successful team in women’s international soccer. The USWNT owns four World Cups, eight CONCACAF gold medals and four Olympic gold medals. It medaled in every major tournament from 1991 to 2015.
The USWNT achieves more history on Wednesday night when the world champions host Nigeria at 8 p.m. in the first soccer match ever played at Q2 Stadium, the home of Austin FC. The match is part of Olympic preparations and is the last of a three-game summer series that began last week in Houston with wins over Jamaica and Portugal.
“We’re honored and thankful for the opportunity to be the first ones to play at the new stadium,” USWNT head coach Vlatko Andonovski told reporters on Tuesday afternoon. “It is important to be in areas that the game is growing, and we have a responsibility to help grow the game as much as possible.”
