Over two friendlies, the U.S. women’s national team failed to beat the number one ranked team in the world, Spain.
First, the USA were shut out 2-0 at Audi Field, before the hosts rescued some respectability and forced a 2-2 draw at Subaru Park after again trailing by two goals at the halfway point. Manager Emma Hayes had to get creative with her lineups as she was missing key players due to injury.
