USWNT 2023 fixtures & results: Women's World Cup, SheBelieves Cup & U.S. match schedule in full

It's been a difficult year for the U.S. women's national team. It went to the 2023 Women's World Cup aiming to become the first side to ever win the title three times in a row but instead ending up going home in the last 16, suffering the earliest exit in the programme's history.

Head coach Vlatko Andonovski left his role shortly afterwards, with U.S. Soccer now hoping the team can recover in the final months of the year and make positive steps as it prepares for the 2024 Summer Olympics.

With plenty of games lined up in the coming months, the chance is there for it to do so, with Twila Kilgore taking interim charge for those fixtures while the federation continues to search for Andonovski's successor.

What games has the USWNT played in 2023?

The USWNT kicked off the year in New Zealand in January, facing the co-hosts of the 2023 Women's World Cup in a doubleheader. It won both games comprehensively, the first a 4-0 result and the second finishing 5-0, allowing the team to start 2023 with a bang. In February, the USWNT then hosted the sixth edition of its annual SheBelieves Cup, beating all of Canada, Japan and Brazil on its way to the trophy.

That winning run continued with back-to-back friendly victories over the Republic of Ireland at the start of April and a win over Wales in the U.S.'s final World Cup preparation match.

However, the tournament in Australia and New Zealand did not go to plan at all, with the reigning champion eliminated in the last 16 after losing a penalty shootout to Sweden. It is the USWNT's earliest exit from the competition ever and the first time it has not made the semi-finals.
