USWNT beats Mexico 3-0 in final match before World Cup

HARRISON, N.J. — Three goals and a dominant display against Mexico gave the United States women’s national team a win for its final game before the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup begins June 7. Tobin Heath, Mallory Pugh and Christen Press each scored Sunday at Red Bull Arena.

The U.S. spent the majority of the opening 10 minutes in the final third, frequently launching quick attacking plays. The reward came in the 11th minute, when Heath made her way into the penalty area chasing a loose ball. After easily getting around defender Rebecca Bernal, Heath finished from close range.
