This goes to show that defense does win games. Becky Sauerbrunn definitely deserves to be on that 2015 WWC roster for that play. Best defensive play of the game.
Lawree Paz If you watched this game and last game she came up with some pretty great saves multiple times and with almost every goal you can see the glaring errors of the defense. Also she was clearly one of Mexico's biggest leaders on the field. She's not Hope Solo but she's just 19 years old and GKs don't normally peak until early 30s so I predict a very bright future for her.
I agree, Cecilia Santiago did a good job considering how horrible Mexico's defence was. Just look at 3:57. There is a cross coming in to the goal area and you have three undefended world-class attackers there (Christen Press, all-time leading scorer for Stanford amongst other record breaking categories), (Abby Wambach, Florida Gators' all-time leading scorer, 2012 Gold Medal Olympian and the leading world all-time international scorer for men and women), and Alex Morgan for the header (ranked third all-time in goals scored for the Golden Bears and 2012 Gold Medal Olympian.)
Jill Ellis now has to reduce the number of players in the USWNT camp from 28 to just 20 for the qualifying roster of the World Cup. Any one of those eight who are going to be cut would be star players and the envy of any coach on any other team in the world.
Anyone else hate the way the ball plays across the artificial turf? It was annoying watching good services bump and roll or pop up weird directions when on grass it would have taken a more predictable trajectory. I doubt it will happen, but for the sake of my football loving eyes, I really hope the players get FIFA to nix the turf for the WC.
I'm Mexican and I admit Mexico is not having their good years anymore and well the fans are kind being hard on them now but I believe they will get better and I give a lot of respect for the US since I live here I also believe that USA will get better as well.
You wouldn't say that in the gold when mexico faced the U.S men national team haha mexico made the U.S cry it all about men national team nobody usually see's female soccer now in days so most likely mexico is way better in men soccer mexico has defeated the U.S more times
USA team is ready for rock and roll next year world cup .. but Hope Solo, never do it like that undermine passing the ball in world cup 2015. You would make your team gets heart break from opponents who have the same quality or more of you guys. So far, USA team is pretty much ready.
Wow, what a defensive play by Sauerbrunn. Beautiful assist by O'Riely for Morgan's goal. Heath seems to be getting back. France isn't doing her much good it seems. Press looking better all the time. I'm getting excited for Canada.
***** Gano la pasada copa oro porque Mexico se la regalo ya que Mexico tenia la copa confederaciones y para la copa oro mando a un equipo b o c, puros suplentes de los suplentes....por eso Usa gano la copa oro...
Can Hope Solo clear a ball? Almost every recent game she has at least one terrible amateurish clearance. If the US faces any real challenging games this could be the difference. For that matter, why is she still in net? With all her personal drama and distractions she causes isn't there any other female keeper behind her who can take her place?
Uninteresting, unimpressed, this is never a match. US should try to use their second or third eleven squad to play a game like this. Mexicans doesn't fit this task. They had no team period. USA should look for stronger nation to battle with, not team like Mexican women national soccer team who can not score a penalty kick even in the absent of the goal keeper.

seeing hope wear the captains armband makes me happy :))
Lot of respect for the Mexican keeper, she's so young and has a lot of talent. Its too bad her defense consistently lets her down.
Really? I mean, it's not all about the defense...there's a reason why there is a goalkeeper you know? She seems to be as numb as the defense...

I like having Tobin Heath up top! Tobin and Alex morgan will be a dangerous dual in the future.
God, is Alex beautiful.
Don't hesitate when there is an open goal. I can understand the pressure but you have a clear shot so take it.
I love you Alex Morgan an USA team love you so much

These ladies are unstoppable.

I do. It really sucks when the turf is wet too.
seriously like the women's team is way better than the men's national team
Uriel Martinez Lmao no there not. You can't even begin to compare them. Half of the nations the WNT play are shit!
Tobin is bae
Great game ladies⚽️
Goal! USA, USA, USA...
Great long passes!!

Mexico's team is so embarrassing. Great game for the USWNT.

Uriel Martinez Nice joke.
BrolyTheLengendary Super Saiyan haha great banter.
Uriel Martinez not the mexican team 😂

Nope. Not even close.

Prefiero esto y que en la selección de hombres Mexico siga siendo infinitamente superior la de Usa,
***** Gano la pasada copa oro porque Mexico se la regalo ya que Mexico tenia la copa confederaciones y para la copa oro mando a un equipo b o c, puros suplentes de los suplentes....por eso Usa gano la copa oro...
***** Eso no tiene nada que ver....estamos hablando de la copa oro y el equipo c que mando Mexico lindo y querido.... adiós. no contestare mas.
"LEAR M E X I C O"
Mexico's whole team especially their goalie and defenders are so bad they need a way better coach to help them get better
A good parent always vaccinates their children :)
Just wanted to see if there are any Hot Chicks here. I found two! The Goalkeeper in yellow and the girl named Morgan. I would take either one of them.
Don't forget Sydney Leroux.

After the world cup, what do you think about her clearance?? I think she did a pretty amazing job, don't you think???
I was at this game Bitches!

Bad defense
