The USWNT hold a 10W - 4L - 1T record all-time vs Le Azzure.
The Americans lost the first 3 meetings vs. Italy, including the first-ever USWNT match on August 18, 1985. The 4th loss came at 2001 Algarve Cup, when US Soccer took a younger squad to Portugal so veterans could stay in WUSA preseason.

Jaedyn Shaw was 6 years old at the time!
