Ali Krieger

Hopefully I'll get a brunch invitation here soon.

I'm sure I'll find my way.

All right, we want to remind you what's coming up for the US Women's National Team.

Their next three friendlies in April on the 11th, 14th, and 17th all against Japan.

The CONCACAF W Championship starts in November, which could give them a ticket.

Not only will it implies a lot for the World Cup qualifiers and also the Olympics.

So excited for that.

And for this, goalkeeper Casey Murphy will call Boston home this season after signing a deal worth $1.5 million with the legacy.

The deal extends through the 2029 NWSL season with a mutual option for 2030.

This ends her five-year stay with the North Carolina Courage, and she took some time to talk to our Allie Krieger.

Casey Murphy, hi, welcome back.

Thank you so much for joining us.

Just want to kick it off.

How was your off season, and did you get any chance to truly reset, recharge, and refocus for this season?

When you look back, before we look forward to Boston, when you look back at your season in 2025, how did you reflect on it specifically as a goalkeeper?

And you can carry that good win and that mentality into this new experience with a new franchise.

How incredible that you're stepping into this expansion team and this new project with the first ever coach, Filippa Patel.

Given her success at Benfica, I'm interested to hear if that confidence of her track record bring that directly into the locker room and positive vibes.

When you've been connecting with her, what are your conversations like and what is she excited about for you to join the team?

Very disciplined coach, yes.
