The United States Women's National Team has already earned enough points to advance, but getting a point against North Korea is still very important.
A draw or win will clinch the group for the Americans and allow them to avoid the winner of Group F, likely Japan.
North Korea started the Olympics off on the right foot with a 2-0 victory over Colombia. However, the wheels fell off against France.
North Korea played well for the first 45 minutes. Only relenting once right before half. The second half was a different story, as France put in four goals to win the match 5-0.
Head coach Pia Sundhage was in attendance scouting the Koreans. There was plenty to take away from it. Here are six matchups to watch.
