USA 2-2 tie with Spain not enough to advance out of group at U20 Women’s World Cup

Starting XI: Laurel Ivory, Isabel Rodriguez, Naomi Girma, Samantha Hiatt, Kiara Pickett, Viviana Villacorta, Jaelin Howell, Savannah DeMelo, Erin Gilroy, Sophia Smith, Ashley Sanchez

The Unites States started off their third game of the U20 Women’s World Cup on the back foot against Spain and pretty much stayed that way for most of the first half. They were almost immediately a ta deficit as Spain opened the scoring in the 7’ when a bad clearance from Jaelin Howell landed right at the foot of Guijarro, who placed it neatly in the corner to make it 1-0.
