The United States touched down in Auckland on Tuesday in the lead-up to their bid for a third consecutive Women's World Cup title, hoping to be New Zealand fans' second favourite team after the home Football Ferns.

It is the second time the U.S. have visited New Zealand in six months, having held a training camp in the country in January when they beat the World Cup co-hosts in two matches series in Wellington and Auckland. The U.S. will be based in Auckland during the tournament, which is being co-hosted by Australia, and play all their Group E matches in New Zealand.
