USWNT vs. Portugal: How to watch Team USA in the Women’s World Cup 2023
Soccer fans, set your alarms. The US Women's National Team (USWNT) is headed for their third and final match in the Group Stage of the Women's World Cup. After winning their 2023 World Cup debut game 3–0, and then tying 1–1 with the Netherlands in a brutal rematch of the 2019 World Cup Final, Team USA's future will be determined early Tuesday morning when they face Portugal. The USWNT took home the past two World Cup trophies, (2019 and 2015), and American fans are more than ready to follow the team on their quest for a third World Cup title.
Unfortunately, this year's World Cup is beset with an awkward time difference, with many of the New Zealand– and Australia-based matches airing in the middle of the night for American audiences. And while the first two USA games had a convenient time slot for some American audiences, USA vs. Portugal will begin bright and early at 3 a.m. ET. So you may want to get the coffee brewing now...
Here’s everything you need to know about where to watch the USWNT's next 2023 World Cup game: USA vs. Portugal, plus the full Women’s World Cup schedule, where to stream World Cup games and more.
