Megan Rapinoe powers U.S. to come-from-behind win over Brazil

After a lackluster performance against Australia in its first Tournament of Nations match, the United States Women’s National Team faced off against Brazil, a team that drew 1-1 with Japan in its first match. While much of the game was a repeat of the first—with poor possession and a missing midfield for the U.S.—the team managed to come from behind and earn a 4-3 win in the waning minutes.

Seattle Reign FC’s Megan Rapinoe was the wizard behind all four U.S. goals, assisting on two, scoring one, and starting the attack on the game-winning goal.
