Thompson, who has 13 caps with the USWNT, made her international debut on October 7, 2022 versus England; she is the youngest player to debut for the USA since 2016. Thompson scored her first goal for the USWNT against Iceland on October 24, 2024 in Austin, Texas.
The 2025 SheBelieves Cup will begin for the USWNT on Thursday, February 20 against Colombia at Shell Energy Stadium in Houston, Texas, which will air on TBS and Max and in Spanish on Universo and Peacock.
