Portland Thorns FC News Release
PORTLAND, Ore. - Portland Thorns FC had 10 players called up to represent their countries in the May/June 2025 FIFA Women's International Window, contributing to game-changing moments across the globe and strengthening their development alongside national teammates.
A full breakdown for each Thorns player and the matches their country played can be found down below.
For the U.S., midfield duo Sam Coffey and Olivia Moultrie made appearances for the senior USWNT in their matches against China and Jamaica with Coffey scoring her second career international goal against China. Caiya Hanks featured twice for the U-23 USWNT in their away matches against the German U-23's that saw both countries walk away with a victory each.
Other international Thorns goal scorers include forward Deyna Castellanos (Venezuela) and defender Kaitlyn Torpey (Australia), each finding the back of the net on one occasion for their respective countries. Australia won both its games against Argentina while Venezuela split its series against New Zealand with a win a piece.
Midfielder Jessie Fleming and forward Mimi Alidou reunited with Canada to lead their country to two dominant wins against Haiti. While once again donning the captain's armband for Canada, Fleming bagged two assists in the second contest against Haiti. To close out Concacaf internationals, defender Reyna Reyes and Mexico drew then won their friendlies against Uruguay, with Reyes playing the full match in the first contest.
Defender Isabella Obaze played the entire match for Denmark in an important 1-0 win against Wales in the 2025 UEFA Women's Nations League, but a loss to Sweden now sees the Danes ready to defend their position in League A during the promotion/relegation playoffs later this year.
To wrap up the International Report, midfielder Hina Sugita returned to the Japanese National Team for their matches against Brazil, coming off the bench on both occasions.
