CBS Sports will have at least two hours of on-site studio coverage for the Semifinals from Estadio Universitario. Coverage of the Third-Place match and Final, both exclusively streaming on Paramount+, will be live from Estadio BBVA, just outside Monterrey.
Coverage begins on Monday, July 4 (6:00 PM, ET) with a one-hour pre-match show leading into Group A action between USA-Haiti. Host Poppy Miller, along with U.S. Hall of Fame goalkeeper Briana Scurry, former Canada National Team player Kaylyn Kyle and former Mexico National Team player Jenny Ruiz-Williams, will serve as studio analysts throughout the Championship, providing analysis, reactions and more as teams compete to qualify for the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup and the 2024 Summer Olympics. Coverage will originate from Stamford, Conn. for the group stages before moving on-site for the Semifinals and Final.
All three of the US Women’s National team group stage matches, along with the Semifinals and Final, will feature Lisa Byington as play-play announcer, with former USWNT member Aly Wagner as analyst. Jenny Chiu will serve as the sideline reporter for the matches.
All four semifinalists will automatically qualify for the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup. The winner of the Concacaf W Championship will also automatically qualify for the 2024 Summer Olympics, while second and third-place teams will advance to a play-off match for the final Olympic spot.
CBS Sports will provide additional in-depth coverage of the tournament across its digital platforms, including CBSSports.com, the CBS Sports app and CBS Sports HQ, the 24/7 streaming sports news service.
