The 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup is on. The soccer tournament, running from now through August 20, will see the top 32 national teams face off in multiple rounds of play.

The U.S. women's national team, led by Sophia Smith, Alex Morgan and Trinity Rodman, is already off to a strong start with their 3-0 opening win against Vietnam. But will the U.S. team win their fifth FIFA Women's World Cup championship this year?

You'll have to tune in to find out. Here's how to do it.


When and where to watch United States vs. Netherlands

The U.S. women's national team will face off against the Netherlands today, July 26, at 9 p.m. EDT (6 p.m. PDT). The game will air live on Fox.

You can watch games on Fox via an digital TV antenna (where available) or your current cable or satellite package. Don't have cable? The most cost effective way to watch this game, and the rest of the games in the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023 tournament, is with Sling TV. Packages with live soccer games is $20 for your first month. Also worth noting: Sling TV comes with 50 hours of free cloud-based DVR recording space, perfect for saving World Cup games that air in the middle of the night.

When does the U.S. women's national team play in the World Cup?

  • United States vs. Netherlands: July 26 at 9 p.m. EDT (Fox)
  • United States vs. Portugal: August 1 at 3 a.m. EDT (Fox)

The top two teams in Group E will advance to the round of 16 knockout stage. If the U.S. women's national team advances, they'll play their first game of that stage on August 6.


Best way to stream the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023: Sling TV

FIFA Women's World Cup 2023 games will be broadcast on Fox and FS1. While Fox is available over-the-air in most media markets, you'll need cable TV or an online streaming plan to catch the games airing on FS1.
