U.S. Women's Olympic Soccer Team Two Days Away From Opening Match

Aug. 9, 2004

HERAKLION, Greece (Aug. 9, 2004) - The U.S. Women's Olympic Soccer Team is a little more than 48 hours from its first match of the 2004 Olympics against Greece on Wednesday, Aug. 11, at Pankritio Stadium (6 p.m. local / 11 a.m. ET Live on MSNBC) and the U.S. team is primed and anxious to play. This will mark the first-ever match between the USA and Greece in women's soccer, and it will be a historic meeting, not only as it opens the Olympic soccer competition, but also the Olympics themselves, with four women's soccer matches starting at the same time to open the 2004 Summer Games.
