USWNT vs Brazil lineups
This is where you will be able to see the expected USWNT vs Brazil lineups and information regarding any suspended or injured players.
USWNT lineup – injuries, suspensions, and other news
Jenna Nighswonger, Emily Sonnett, Korbin Albert, Lynn Williams, and Casey Krueger were all on the bench in the semi-final clash against Germany a few days ago. However, all of them made an appearance at some point and we are sure they have a good chance of playing in the final as well.
USWNT predicted lineup: Naeher (GK), Dunn, Davidson, Girma, Fox, Coffey, Horan, Lavelle, Smith, Swanson & Rodman
Player to watch: Sophia Smith
Sophia Smith’s decisive 95th-minute goal versus Germany propelled the USWNT to a wonderful 1-0 win over the EU side. Smith was a force to be reckoned with and we are convinced she deserves to be a starter in the final game against almighty Brazil.
Brazil lineup – injuries, suspensions, and other news
Brazil surprised us all with a 4-2 win over in-form Spain a few days ago. The key players on the pitch were undoubtedly Ludmila, Irene Paredes, and Kerolin. All of them scored goals against the European country and we are sure they have a good chance of making stuff happen against the USWNT as well.
Brazil predicted lineup: Lorena (GK), Lauren, Tarciane, Thais, Yaya, Yasmin, Ludmila, Angelina, Jheniffer, Portilho & Priscila
Player to watch: Ludmila
Spain just couldn’t handle tremendous Ludmila during the semi-final game a few days ago. She was the very definition of a game changer, and we are convinced that if the USWNT are going to win the gold, it would likely be because Ludmila got nullified by Hayes’ defenders.
