The United States secured a 2-1 win over Australia at the SheBelieves Cup in Glendale, Arizona, on Sunday to set up a tantalising final matchday clash with Japan.
The victory never really looked in any doubt, with Lynn Biyendolo the beneficiary of Emma Sears' hard work and Jaedyn Shaw's setup, scoring an easy tap-in just 42 seconds into the match.
It was a much-improved performance from the Matildas after their 4-0 shellacking at the hands of Japan last week, but the USWNT kept the visitors at arm's length for most of the match.
