Solo comes up big for 200th cap, US beats France 1-0

BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil (AP) — Love her or hate her, Hope Solo's dominance as a goalkeeper is undeniable.

Solo came up big in her historic 200th international appearance as the United States fought off France 1-0 on Saturday in an Olympic group match at Mineirao Stadium. And she did it while facing boos from Brazilian fans still riled up about her social media posts about the Zika virus.

"What's important to me is that I played the best quality of football that I can play, and that hopefully our team makes it to the final," Solo said.
