USA vs. Japan and Australia vs. Colombia, 2025 She Believes Cup: Match thread
The final games of the 2025 She Believes Cup have begun! First up, Colombia takes on Australia, both vying for their first win of the tournament and a chance to move out of the bottom spot.
Then, in something of a championship match, the USWNT play Japan. Both teams have two wins, but Japan have a four-goal lead in goal differential, so the US will need a win tonight to earn their sixth consecutive She Believes title.
I’m a little late on posting this one, but hey: So are the matches! Chat about either or both here if you can stay up that late!

Woohoo, let’s go!!!
Who’s up for an obscenely late match?
Just me?
I don’t know if I’m going to make it the full 90, but I will try
Sometimes for these games, I allow myself to nap a bit before without going into full sleep mode. Is it good for your regular sleep pattern? Lord, no, but these important strangely scheduled games don’t happen too often
I have the second half of the Colombia Australia game. Looks like Colombia will likely eek it out, two very physical, unlikable teams with bad management.
Well, that was not good.
Time for a fun fact! By my count, there are THREE players from Washington Spirit’s championship-winning team on the field tonight.
