Olympics are over, World Cup is in three years: What questions must USWNT answer now?

Emma Hayes is tasked with rebuilding the U.S. women's national team ahead of the 2027 World Cup .

The USWNT won gold at the Olympics in Paris , France , for the program's fifth Olympic gold medal.

Alyssa Naehera proved again why she is the USwNT's No. 1 goalkeeper.

A futures camp in January will be a mix of players mostly 23 and under.

USWNT has a proven track record of producing sensational goalkeepers and struggling with how to transition to the next one.

Casey Murphy , Jane Campbell and Casey Murphy will challenge Naeher for the No. 1 spot at the 2019 World Cup .

The U.S. must find a way to get multiple goalkeepers ready for 2027 while eventually identifying the starter.

The USWNT 's entire midfield is 25 or younger, and there's a rising generation coming up behind it.

How that midfield unit fits together could be make or break to a 2027 World Cup triumph.

Albert and Hal Hershfelt are clearly well-regarded by Hayes , and Olivia Moultrie is back in camp, and that's not even to mention Jaedyn Shaw .
