The annual SheBelieves Cup is taking place this week, and it has been a good competition so far.
While the competition does not include all the top teams in the world, there have been great games so far, with promising matchups to come.
The U.S. Women’s National Team is the highest-ranked team by FIFA in the tournament, followed by Canada, Colombia, and then Argentina. There is a large gap between these teams in rankings, though, with the U.S. being second and Argentina being 30th.
This gap showed in the U.S. game vs Argentina in Nashville on Sunday. With a 2-0 win over Argentina, the U.S. is in second place, after Canada, thanks to goal differential.
Canada has had a successful start, beating Colombia 4-1. This win put them in first place and set them up for success in the rest of the tournament. They will face the U.S. in a rivalry match tonight, then Argentina on Saturday to finish the tournament.
Tonight’s game will be entertaining to watch, as the rivalry between the U.S. and Canada always gets chippy and rough. The U.S. is likely to win, as they have a better record in the history of this matchup.
Argentina and Colombia will also face off tonight, hopefully providing a good game, as they are closer in rank. Argentina has the most wins in this matchup, but Colombia has looked better recently, so it should be interesting to see who comes out on top.
The final games will be played on Sunday. The U.S. will face Colombia, which is another usually chippy game, but should be a relatively easy win. Canada will face Argentina, which should also be an easy win.
Canada and the U.S. are most likely to come out on top, both fighting for that top spot. Tonight will most likely be the most telling game of the tournament, as whoever wins will take the top spot.
If there were a tie tonight, and both teams win on Saturday, it would come down to goal differential, so both teams need to aim to score as many goals as possible.
Games can be watched on TNT, TruTV, and TBS, and can be streamed on Peacock and Max.
