SheBelieves Cup will come down to the last match, with the U.S. women’s national team and Japan vying for the trophy on Wednesday at 10:30

It was the fourth goal the USWNT scored this tournament and the second scored as a first-ever national team goal. Ally Sentnor scored her first national team goal in the victory against Colombia. Hayes' messaging to less capped players has been consistent and one that places the onus on players to seize the opportunity in front of them.

A first-minute goal from Lynn Biyendolo set the USWNT on its way, while Michelle Cooper's first senior national team goal proved to be the winner. Despite a late finish from Matildas' veteran Michelle Heyman, the USWNT benefitted from impressive performances by playmaker Jaedyn Shaw and 19-year-old holding midfielder Claire Hutton.
