USA v England: SheBelieves Cup – live!

Here’s a look at today’s teams. One change for the Jill Ellis’s side from Wednesday’s draw with Japan (more on that in a bit) and four for the Lionesses from their win over Brazil.

A minor sartorial note: Each USA player will be wearing the name of a woman who’s personally inspired them on the back of their shirt in a nod to Women’s History Month. We’ve listed the names appearing on their shirts in italics, in case you were getting excited at the thought of a Sally Ride-Jennifer Lawrence center-back pairing.
