On this week's Full Time Focus, Jillian Sakovits is joined by The Athletic's Tamerra Griffin to break down the USWNT's 4-0 win over the Republic of Ireland in Colorado on Thursday night. The duo also reflect on the first anniversary of Emma Hayes taking over as head coach, and the symmetry Dick's Sporting Goods Park being the very same stadium she took charge of her first game.
What were the sights and sounds on the ground at the USWNT's triumphant return to Colorado? How has Alyssa Thompson upped her game to score one of the best USWNT's this decade? What has Hayes achieved in this remarkable first year in charge, and why is there so much more to come?
PLUS: Jillian looks ahead to some choice international games this weekend, including the USWNT's rematch with Ireland, a top-tier clash in the Americas and the defending European champions send-off game. Get focused with Full Time's 1-2-3.
