Unpacking Michele Kang's donation, and the final USWNT roster of 2024

On this episode of Full Time, Tamerra Griffin and Meg Linehan get the listener caught up on everything U.S. women's national team ahead of the final matches of 2024. After all, it has been rather a busy week at the federation.

Tamerra and Meg break down what Michelle Kang's $30m donation to U.S. Soccer really means, analyze Emma Hayes' final roster of the year, talk a little bit about the SheBelieves Cup 2025 schedule, and try to gauge the importance of winning this week in Europe against England and the Netherlands.

Oh, and there's also just enough time for Meg to react to the news of Alyssa Naeher's retirement from international soccer.
