World Cup: Patchogue's Top Spots To Watch U.S. Vs. France

PATCHOGUE, NY — The United States and France are set for a huge matchup in the quarterfinals of the 2019 Women's World Cup, on Friday, June 28 at 3 p.m.

The U.S. team came into the tournament as the overall favorites to win the trophy and, so far, they've met those lofty expectations. The 23-player roster from the United States have won all four of their games, including a 13-0 masterclass performance against Thailand.

Star player Alex Morgan is the joint high goal scorer in the tournament with five goals, and the team's defense has been in fantastic form, only allowing one goal in the four games. But the competition is only going to get tougher for the Americans in the knockout stages. The team had to rely on two penalty kicks to defeat a strong Spanish foe.

The United States will have to be at their best against a France team that also hasn't lost in the tournament, and comes into the match after an impressive victory over Brazil in the round of 16.
