USWNT vs. Spain preview: Sam Mewis and Ali Riley go live on TWG
The Women’s Game Live will air a special episode titled “TWG Live! USWNT vs. Spain w/ Ali Riley” on Saturday, Oct 10 at 12PM ET, according to www.meninblazers.com.
Sam Mewis is listed as a host for the episode, with Ali Riley as the featured guest. The episode is part of The Women’s Game Live series, presented by Verizon, per the source.
This live show is positioned as a preview of the USWNT vs. Spain match, as indicated by the episode title and the social image text “Sam Mewis & Ali Riley break down USWNT vs. Spain LIVE.”
Fans can catch the preview live on the platform, which offers both watch and listen options.
The specific match date and venue for USWNT vs. Spain are not confirmed in the source.
HOSTS AND GUESTS
Sam Mewis is the primary host for the Oct 10 episode, listed under 'Hosts & Guests' on the episode page. Ali Riley is the featured guest, per the episode title, which reads "TWG Live! USWNT vs. Spain w/ Ali Riley."
The pairing is not new. The source shows Mewis and Riley previously co-hosted a "USWNT vs. Brazil LIVE Post-match reactions" episode on JUN 9, bringing the same dynamic to a post-match setting.
Mewis has anchored other live shows in the series as well. She hosted with Meredith Speck on JUN 6 for "USWNT vs. Brazil LIVE Post-match reactions," and with Becky Sauerbrunn on MAY 23 for "Barcelona vs. Lyon LIVE Post-match reactions," per the source.
For this preview episode, the page lists only Mewis as host and Riley as guest. No additional guests or panelists are confirmed beyond the two.
PAST EPISODES
Mewis has been a constant presence across The Women's Game Live in recent weeks, per the source. On SEP 1, she hosted "Sam Mewis and Denver Summit FC LIVE in Denver!" as part of the series presented by Verizon.
The run of episodes leading into the Spain preview shows the show's rhythm. On SEP 30, Mewis was joined by Lindsey Heaps for "Lindsey Heaps on USWNT vs. Spain, Ashley Sanchez’s Return, Roster Snubs & Finally Meeting Messi."
A day earlier, on SEP 29, she teamed with Lynn Biyendolo for "Ashley Sanchez Returns To USWNT! Full Roster Reactions + Arsenal's Struggles I Good Vibes FC."
On SEP 28, Mewis hosted solo for "Vlatko Andonovski on His Chicago Stars Rebuild, Mal Swanson's Future & Winning in the NWSL."
And on SEP 25, she appeared alongside her sister Kristie Mewis for "Sam & Kristie Mewis on Career Regrets, Expensive Wish Lists, & Making A Comeback?!," per the source.
The pattern is clear: Mewis has rotated between solo hosting duties and pairing with a rotating cast of guests across the series. The Oct 10 episode continues that format, with Riley stepping in as the featured guest for the USWNT vs. Spain preview.
REACTION FORMAT
The Oct 10 show is billed as a "preview" of the USWNT vs. Spain match, per the headline and the episode's social image text. That marks a shift from the series' recent format, which has leaned heavily on post-match breakdowns.
Earlier this year, The Women's Game Live aired "USWNT vs. Brazil LIVE Post-match reactions" episodes on JUN 9 and JUN 6, both hosted by Mewis with a guest alongside her. Those shows came after the final whistle. This one arrives before kickoff.
The episode page also includes a "Match Chat" section in the site's navigation, suggesting fan interaction could be part of the live broadcast. The exact structure of that chat is not detailed in the source.
What fans will not get ahead of time is any confirmed preview content. The source provides no quotes from Mewis or Riley about the upcoming match, and no specific talking points, predictions, or analysis plans are listed for the episode. Any expectation of specific discussion topics remains unconfirmed.
The show carries the "Presented by Verizon" branding, the same sponsorship noted on the Denver episode and across the series. That much is confirmed. What Riley and Mewis will actually say about Spain on Saturday is not.
WHAT TO WATCH NEXT
The live episode airs on Saturday, Oct 10 at 12PM ET, according to the source. Fans can tune in via The Women's Game Live, which offers "Watch & listen" options on its site, alongside sections for a Shop and Newsletters that suggest additional content and merchandise tied to the show.
The exact match date, kickoff time, and any post-match show details are not confirmed in the source. However, the pattern from previous USWNT matches offers a clue: after the June game vs. Brazil, the series aired a live post-match reactions episode featuring Sam Mewis and Ali Riley. Whether Spain gets the same treatment remains unconfirmed.
The source does not specify the next episode after Oct 10, but the series appears to air regularly, with multiple episodes throughout September, including recent ones with Lindsey Heaps on the USWNT vs. Spain roster and Ashley Sanchez's return. Fans can expect the schedule to continue, though no date has been locked in.
For now, the confirmed next step is Saturday's preview with Riley as the featured guest and Mewis hosting. That much is set. Everything beyond the whistle — the match itself and any follow-up show — stays in the unconfirmed column until the source says otherwise.
