16-Year-Old Lily Yohannes Shines in USWNT Win Amid Olympic Roster Decisions
TL;DR
USWNT head coach Emma Hayes faces tough decisions for the 2024 Olympic roster, needing to cut the squad to 18 players. With a wealth of attacking talent but limited defensive depth, Hayes must balance her selections carefully. Key players like Alex Morgan, Rose Lavelle, and Catarina Macario are on the bubble, while defensive options like Sam Staab, Abby Dahlkemper, and Casey Krueger are being considered to fortify the backline. The final roster will need to address both versatility and depth to compete effectively in Paris.
