The U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team will take on the Korea Republic Women’s National Football team tonight at 7:00 PM at the SMG managed Mercedes Benz Superdome. Tonight’s match is one of only four games left in the U.S. Women’s Team’s 2017 schedule, the first of a doubleheader of friendlies against the Korea Republic. These two teams have not met since 2015 which resulted in a 0-0 draw.
The United States Women’s Soccer Team is a three-time FIFA Women’s World Cup winner and the most successful team in international women’s soccer. The team currently occupies the number one position in the FIFA Women’s World Rankings, a position it has held almost continuously since March 2008.
In tonight’s match at the Superdome, the U.S. Women’s team will test the durability and playability of the recently installed Act Global synthetic turf. The artificial grass is engineered and tested to offer a superior playing surface for the players, creating a surface that is fast under the foot and provide sufficient firmness to limit fatigue injuries to the lower extremities of the player’s body. The synthetic turf system also provides proper Rotational Resistance (traction) to ensure foot stability and to enable quick release of the shoes during rotation and traction movements. These specifically engineered components of the turf will help protect individual players so that the U.S. Women’s Soccer Team can perform their best tonight.
Good luck to the United States Women’s team tonight!
