Marc Connelly on the Coach's plan:

Strategically speaking, Heinrichs will look to send a lineup out on the field that will combine both the quickness and agility that she says will cause Norway difficulty, as well as a powerful unit that will challenge them for every head ball. It could result in a similar starting unit that lined up against Sweden in the opening match of the World Cup. Obviously, Brandi Chastain (broken foot) will not be out there, but besides the insertion of Cat Reddick into the back four, it could look the same.

Lilly, Boxx and Julie Foudy are likely to start in the midfield with Hamm, Parlow and Abby Wambach in front of them. In the back, Joy Fawcett, Kate Sobrero and Reddick appear to be locks. The only question is whether Christie Pearce or Kylie Bivens will get the nod at right back.
