[FONT=georgia,palatino]The U.S. WNT has touched down in Frankfurt, Germany to prepare for its April 5 clash with Germany at Sparda Bank Hessen Stadium in Offenbach. The match will kick-off at 6:15 p.m. local / 12:15 p.m. ET and fans can watch the match -- presented by ESPNW -- streamed live on ESPN3, WatchESPN and ESPNW.
The USA trained for the first time in Frankfurt on the afternoon of March 30 in what the weather app said was 41 degrees, but it felt more like 31, maybe even 21. It will be a cold week for the USA in Germany and then a chilly few days in the Netherlands after the Americans travel northwest for a meeting with the Dutch on April 9 in The Hague, but fans will surely be treated to two tremendously exciting and competitive games.
Just 15 of the of the 23 players on the roster for these two matches trained on March 30, as the USA's Portland Thorns contingent of Alex Morgan and Rachel Buehler hit some major travel troubles and will arrive on March 31 while the USA's six European-based players will arrive into camp a bit later due to club matches. France-based Megan Rapinoe and Tobin Heath will arrive on April 1 along with Liverpool defender Whitney Engen, while the USA's three Sweden-based players, Christen Press, Yael Averbuch and Meghan Klingenberg will arrive on April 2.[/FONT]
