Emma Hayes's first competitive match as U.S. national women's team coach will be at the Paris Olympics against Morocco or Zambia after the Americans were drawn in a tough Group B with one of the African teams, Germany and Australia.

The English coach will start her job some two months before the four-times gold medallists kick off their campaign in Nice on July 25 before facing the Germans in the same city three days later and Australia in Marseille on July 31.
