U.S. Soccer confirmed Tuesday news that has already been widely reported, naming Chelsea manager Emma Hayes coach of the women's national team. What the federation couldn't say, however, is when the new coach will be able to meet with her players.
"This is a huge honor to be given the opportunity to coach the most incredible team in world football history," Hayes, 47, said in a statement released by U.S. Soccer. "The feelings and connection I have for this team and for this country run deep. I've dreamed about coaching the USA for a long time, so to get this opportunity is a dream come true."
