Brazil had the opening flurry and the best chance of the game so far, but Team USA is starting to gain momentum. The match has seen a lot of action at the shady end of the pitch in recent minutes, with the Americans launching attacks down both flanks. A standout moment occurred when Trinity Rodman showcased impressive dribbling skills, leaving a Brazilian defender in her wake and eliciting a loud cheer from the crowd.
While the US team has earned a couple of corner kicks, they have yet to truly test Brazilian goalkeeper Lorena. The game has been characterized by back-and-forth play, providing an energetic start to this final showdown.
