Ganaran sus primeros partidos del torneo el jueves, la implacable presi\u00f3n inicial del USWNT se vio recompensada en el minuto 11 cuando Lindsey Horan envi\u00f3 un pase a Press por la banda izquierda y despu\u00e9s de un ingenioso regate al \u00e1rea de penalti. , lanz\u00f3 un tiro desde la esquina superior del \u00e1rea para el primer gol del juego y su d\u00e9cimo en sus \u00faltimos 13 juegos.

(Feb. 21, 2021) &#8212; The U.S. Women\u2019s National Team put together an entertaining performance during a 2-0 victory against Brazil in second of its three matches at the 2021 SheBelieves Cup, presented by Visa. Goals early and late from Christen Press and Megan Rapinoe, respectively &#8211; both teed up by Lindsey Horan \u2013 earned the USA the full three points as well as first place in the tournament standings with one match day left to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The match marked the first time the USA has faced a Brazil team coached by former USWNT head coach Pia Sundhage, who led the USA to gold medals at the 2008 and 2012 Olympic Games and to the 2011 FIFA Women\u2019s World Cup Final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The victory puts the USA (2-0-0, 6 points) in sole possession of the top spot in the SheBelieves Cup standings and in pole position to take home the tournament title. A win or draw against Argentina on Wednesday, Feb. 24 would see the USA clinch tournament title. The match will kick off at 7 p.m. ET on FS1 and TUDN from Exploria Stadium in Orlando, Fla.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After both Brazil and the USA won their opening matches of the tournament on Thursday, the USWNT\u2019s relentless early pressure was rewarded in the 11th minute when Lindsey Horan sent a pass to Press down the left wing and after a nifty bit of dribbling into the penalty area, she ripped a shot from the top corner of the box for the game\u2019s opening goal and her 10th in her last 13 games. It was also her 59th career goal for the United States. She sits in 10th all-time for the USA but her next goal will tie her for ninth place with Shannon MacMillan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a free-flowing game that featured tremendous transition play from both teams, the U.S. continued to threaten down the stretch and the aftermath of a free kick sparked an insurance goal for the WNT, as Horan served a ball for Rapinoe to volley home in the 88th minute. It was Rapinoe\u2019s 54th career international goal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Horan logged her 30th and 31st career assists and became the 18th player in USWNT history to record 30 or more.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ussoccer.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ORLANDO, Florida (21 de febrero de 2021) &#8211; La Selecci\u00f3n Nacional Femenina de EE.
