The Philippines Women’s National Soccer Team has made history by featuring American players in their roster for the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup. This marks the first time that the Philippines has had American players on their team for a major international tournament.
The two American players, Kaleigh Riehl and Jazmine Reeves, have both been playing soccer since they were young. Riehl is a defender from Fairfax, Virginia, while Reeves is a forward from Los Angeles, California. Both players have had success in the United States Women’s National Soccer Team (USWNT) system, with Riehl having been part of the USWNT U-17 team and Reeves having been part of the USWNT U-20 team.
The addition of these two players to the Philippines Women’s National Soccer Team is a huge step forward for the team. It shows that they are committed to competing at the highest level and are willing to bring in talent from other countries to help them reach their goals. The team is also hoping that having these two players on their roster will help to inspire more Filipino-American players to pursue soccer at a higher level.
The Philippines Women’s National Soccer Team will be competing in the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup in France this summer. This will be their first appearance in the tournament since 1991 and they are hoping to make a big impression on the world stage. With the addition of Riehl and Reeves, the team is looking to make a strong showing and prove that they are capable of competing with the best teams in the world.
The Philippines Women’s National Soccer Team is an exciting team to watch and with the addition of two American players, they are sure to make a splash at the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup. It will be interesting to see how they perform and if they can make a deep run in the tournament.
