The USA will take on Korea Republic on Thursday, Oct. 21, at Children’s Mercy Park in Kansas City, Kansas (5 p.m. PT on ESPN2 and TUDN) and then will travel to St. Paul, Minnesota to complete that two-game series at Allianz Field on Tuesday, Oct. 26 (4:30 p.m. PT pre-game on FS1 and 8 p.m. ET on TUDN).
The USWNT begins its BioSteel Training Camp on Oct. 18 in Kanas City to prepare for its final domestic matches of the year.
