Press came off the bench in the match that again displayed the excellent depth USWNT coach Jill Ellis has to work with ahead of the 2019 World Cup in France this summer. Press, Mal Pugh and Sam Mewis were three regulars who came off the bench to boost the USWNT in the second half.
Up next, in about a month’s time, the USWNT hosts the She Believes Cup, facing Japan, England and Brazil in late February and early March.
