The Emma Hayes era with the United States women’s national team has been a good one so far, with 33 wins and just five losses in 40 games after winning three-of-five friendlies against Japan and Brazil.
A terrific start saw Hayes win the first ever Ballon d’Or awarded for Women’s Coach of the Year after leading the USWNT to an Olympic gold medal, defeating Brazil in a tense final.
It hasn’t been speed bump free, but Hayes is exploring the program’s depth and mostly producing wins.
