The United States Under-17 Women’s Youth National Team clinched the bronze medal at the 2024 FIFA U17 World Cup with a decisive 3-0 victory over England. North Carolina freshman defender Trinity Armstrong played a vital role, starting every match and contributing to four shutouts. This achievement marks the U.S. team’s best U17 Women’s World Cup finish since 2008, where they previously secured silver. The U.S. remains the only nation to achieve podium finishes in all three FIFA women’s championships this year, building on their recent successes in the U20 and senior categories. Armstrong, an early college enrollee, emerged as a key player both for UNC and the national team.
While this bronze medal is a significant achievement, it underscores the U.S. team’s historical challenges in reaching the podium at the U17 level, having previously secured silver in 2008 but faced setbacks in subsequent tournaments.
With the tournament behind them, Armstrong and her teammates will look to build on this momentum for future competitions, including preparations for the next U17 championships and potential opportunities in the senior national team.
This historic achievement not only highlights the caliber of young talent in American soccer but also emphasizes Armstrong’s promising future as she transitions to collegiate and potentially international play.
