The United States faces Germany in the semifinals of the Olympics, and it's a rare case of the USWNT being ranked lower in the FIFA World Ranking than their opponent.
The USWNT has had a precipitous decline in the ranking thanks to the rise of other nations' women's soccer teams, as well as being amid a period of transition to a new generation of core players, many of whom are in their early-to-mid 20s.
Germany is ranked fourth in the FIFA Women's World Ranking - one spot ahead of the USWNT as of the pre-Olympics update - and has one of the tournament's most talented squads with great players such as Lea Schuller, Alexandra Popp and Ann-Katrin Berger.
These teams already met once in this tournament, when the USWNT won 4-1 thanks to two goals from Sophia Smith.
United States vs. Germany in Olympic women's soccer will be broadcast on USA Network, which can be viewed through cable TV and live TV streaming apps such as YouTubeTV or FuboTV. The game will also be streamed on Peacock.
United States vs. Germany is scheduled to kick off at 12 PM ET/9 AM PT on Tuesday, August 6 with the game taking place at Lyon Stadium in Lyon, France.
United States | 24 wins |
