MATCH DETAILS
USA v. Chile – Women's World Cup Group F
June 16, 2019
Parc des Princes, Paris
MATCH PREVIEW
The defending world champions started their 2019 World Cup in record-setting style by thrashing Thailand 13-0 and they now take on Chile at Parc des Princes on Sunday.
After leading 3-0 at halftime, the Americans scored another ten goals in the second half, with Alex Morgan scoring five goals while Rose Lavelle and Samantha Mewis each scoring two. They are now on a seven-match winning streak and will likely extend that Sunday.
Chile are on a four-match losing streak in all competitions, failing to find the back of the net even once in that span. They were decent defensively against Sweden for the most part, but they allowed two goals after the 80th minutes to seal their fate.
PREDICTED XI
United States of America (W): Alyssa Naeher (GK), Kelley O'Hara, Abby Dahlkemper, Julie Ertz, Crystal Dunn, Rose Lavelle, Samantha Mewis, Lindsey Horan, Tobin Heath, Alex Morgan, Megan Rapinoe
Chile (W): Christine Endler (GK), Javiera Toro, Camila Saez, Carla Guerrero, Su Helen Galaz, Francisca Lara, Yanara Aedo, Karen Araya, Rosario Balmaceda, Yesenia Lopez, Daniela Zamora
COMBINED XI
PLAYERS RECOMMENDATIONS
Defender: Kelley O'Hara (8 credits): The Utah Royals left-back was excellent against Thailand, both defensively and offensively, finishing with two clearances, one tackles and two interceptions while also picking up one assist on two

PLAYERS RECOMMENDATIONS
Defender: Kelley O'Hara (8 credits): The Utah Royals left-back was excellent against Thailand, both defensively and offensively, finishing with two clearances, one tackles and two interceptions while also picking up one assist on two chances created.
Midfielder: Samantha Mewis (9 credits): The North Carolina Courage midfielder played three matches for her club, but failed to find the back of the net. However, after scoring twice in the opener against Thailand, she surely has the attacking confidence now to keep her strong play going.
Forward: Alex Morgan (12.5 credits): Morgan tied a record with her five goals against Thailand, and she also assisted two other scores. She's once again expected to lead the line and should be a dominant player for the Americans.
Captain: Alex Morgan
Vice-Captain: Samantha Mewis
