The USWNT is aiming for its first gold medal at the Olympics since 2012, when the squad won the Games in London. The United States are led by first-year coach Emma Hayes, the former Chelsea manager who was hired as Vlatko Andonovski's replacement after its disappointing performance at last summer's World Cup.

To get there, it must first get past the group stage, with the top two teams in each of the three groups advancing to the knockout stage.
