The Women’s Cup brings international competition to Louisville

One city. Six teams. In case you missed it, some of the greatest women’s soccer teams in the world are coming to Louisville this month.

The Women’s Cup, happening Sun., Aug. 14 through Sat., Aug. 20, will feature Racing Louisville and OL Reign facing off against Club América (Mexico City, Mexico), Tokyo Verdy Beleza (Tokyo, Japan), Tottenham Hotspur (London, England), and AC Milan (Milan, Italy). The best part? All the action is happening right here in Louisville at the state-of-the-art Lynn Family Stadium.

Last year, Racing Louisville shocked the world by defeating FC Bayern Munich (Munich, Germany) in the The Women’s Cup final. This year, they’re looking to defend their title against the top teams on the planet.
