On May 22nd in Cleveland, Ohio with a 4-0 shutout of 2-time defending Women’s World Cup Champions Germany, the U.S. Women’s National team made a statement: they are once again the best team in the world.
The U.S. had two goals in each half, and an amazing game from goalkeeper Hope Solo helped cap the shutout. Goals were scored by Heather O’Reilly, Kristine Lilly, and the always reliable Abby Wambach (2 goals) which moves her into the 3rd position on the U.S. all-time scoring leaders list.
