In the second of two international friendlies, a rejuvenated USWNT bested Japan before the game was called for severe weather.
After just 76 minutes played, the United States Women’s National Team’s (USWNT) second friendly against Japan was called because of inclement weather, giving the U.S. a 2-0 win.
The win comes just days after the two teams battled to a 3-3 draw in Colorado, and while Japan looked much the same as they did on Thursday night, the United States came out looking like a completely different team.
From the opening whistle, the U.S. was pressing hard, controlling the ball, playing well in the attack and putting shots on goal to pressure Japan’s defense and goalkeeper.
