The U.S. women’s national team fell to Japan, 1–0, at Lumen Field in Seattle on Tuesday night as the biggest women’s sports crowd in Seattle history (36,128) watched on during a soggy night in the Pacific Northwest.
Tottenham’s Maika Hamano scored the only goal of the game in the 27th minute. The 21-year-old attacker won the ball off Ally Sentnor in the midfield and then, after some swift passing from Japan, deftly cut inside and curled the ball into the top of the goal.
