Two-Time Women’s World Cup Champion and Olympic Gold Medalist Kelley O’Hara Will Be Honored at Halftime of USWNT Match vs. Iceland on Oct. 27 in Nashville, Tenn.

CHICAGO (Sept. 25, 2024) – Former USWNT defender Kelley O’Hara, one of the most accomplished players in U.S. Women’s National Team history, will be honored in a retirement ceremony at halftime of the USA’s Oct. 27 match vs. Iceland, presented by AT&T, at GEODIS Park in Nashville, Tenn.

Fans wanting to pay homage O’Hara one last time at a USWNT match can purchase tickets here. U.S. Soccer is also offering $16 tickets to pay tribute to O'Hara's 160 career caps. The offer expires on Oct. 4 at 11:59 p.m. ET. The tickets are in the upper end line of sections 225-233.

O’Hara announced on May 2 that this would be her final professional season with NY/NJ Gotham FC. Gotham FC announced on Sept. 21 that she had been placed on the season-ending injury list and thus, she played her final competitive match on Sept. 8 in a 2-1 win over the Houston Dash.

O’Hara played in every senior world championship for the USA from 2011 through 2023, a period that spanned four World Cups and three Olympic Games. O’Hara scored one of the most famous goals in U.S. history when she came off the bench in the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup semifinal. She volleyed home a cross from Carli Lloyd for an 84th minute game-clinching goal against Germany to send the USA to the final, which it would win, 5-2, against Japan.

O’Hara, 36, was known throughout her career as a great teammate and an intense competitor, even for the elite atmosphere of the USWNT. She finished her USWNT career with 160 caps, currently 21st all-time in U.S. history, and played 10,287 minutes in a U.S. jersey, one of just 23 players to eclipse the 10,000-minute mark for the USWNT. She scored three goals in her international career along with 21 assists.

O’Hara hails from Peachtree City, Georgia, and attended Starr’s Mill High School, where she won a state title. She grew up in Fayette County, which as she hangs up her boots, will become the new home of U.S. Soccer as the construction of the new Arthur M. Blank U.S. Soccer National Training Center is underway.

Plans are in the works to honor another USWNT legend, the recently retired Alex Morgan, at a USWNT match in the first part of 2025.
