USWNT Beats Canada in CONCACAF W Championship, Clinches Spot in 2024 Olympics

The United States women's national team is headed to the 2024 Olympics in Paris.

The Americans clinched their spot in the Games with a 1-0 victory over Canada in Monday's final contest of the CONCACAF W Championship at Estadio BBVA. The United States will now be one of two CONCACAF representatives in Paris, while Canada will face third-place finisher Jamaica in a playoff in September 2023 with the other spot on the line.

Jamaica defeated Costa Rica 1-0 in Monday's third-place match.

The lone goal in the title game came on a penalty kick by Alex Morgan in the 78th minute after Rose Lavelle drew the foul in the box.
