Merrill Moses was again one of the stories for the U.S., with the 38-year-old goalkeeper making plenty of solid saves, but Team USA dropped to 0-2 following a 10-9 loss to Spain on Monday at the Olympics.
Alex Bowen scored his third goal with just over a minute to play to bring the Yanks within a goal.
Spain took an early lead, but Tony Azevedo buried a near-side shot with his second attempt of the game to make it 1-1 with five minutes to go in the first.
Luca Capido got in close to make it 2-1 moments later, and the Yanks were ahead.
