Ajax midfielder, American Wonderkid, and Into the Channel-favorite Lily Yohannes has been named to the USWNT's upcoming squad for two friendlies against South Korea.

We jumped in the studio to record our instant-reaction to the news while trying to provide a little context around a 16-year-old American player competing at a high-level in Europe and getting such a serious look at the national team.

We also discussed the fascinating choice Yohannes has between USWNT and the Dutch national team. It's certainly a situation that women's football fans across the USA and the Netherlands will be monitoring.

USA will first take on South Korea at 5 p.m. ET/2 p.m. PT on June 1; and the second friendly will be at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on June 4.
