Sam Mewis's Hat Trick Leads U.S. Over Colombia in Eventful First USWNT Match of 2021

It's the Mewis sisters' world, and we're just living in it.

In its first match on home soil in 313 days, the U.S. women's national team easily dispatched Colombia, 4–0, on Monday night thanks to four goals from Mewis.

Which Mewis, you ask?

The first three came via hat trick by Sam, with the 28-year-old Manchester City midfielder—fresh off being named 2020 U.S. Soccer Female Player of the Year—accomplishing the feat for the first time in her international career. Sam Mewis had a first-half brace before completing her trifecta from the penalty spot in 46th minute.
