Under Jill Ellis’ leadership, the Americans won the past two World Cups in 2015 and 2019.

After making his reputation in the National Women’s Soccer League, Andonovski, a North Macedonian-born American, took over the squad in October 2019.

After falling to eventual victors Canada in the semifinals, the USA won a bronze medal under Andonovski at the Tokyo Olympics.
