Lincoln Financial Field, otherwise known as The Link, home of the NFL's Philadelphia Eagles,
home tonight for the U.S. Women's National Team. They get ready to take on
Portugal in just a few minutes time on a night where they will...
Not big on the stats, but she was influential in all the games that she played in.
USA will be in red. They're in their final huddle. Carly Lloyd wearing that captain's armband
right by the center circle, waiting to get this one started. Portugal's in white.
Philadelphia. Heath tucking it. Lloyd trying to turn. It's knocked away. It's another USA
throw-in, but much deeper. All switch quickly. Press on the left. So good in the air. Jessica
Silva. First time they're in the box of the U.S. That's going to go out for a goal kick.
U.S. corner. On the opposite side, towards the middle. Portugal typically struggles on
service in the box, and you can see it here. The goalkeeper just goes fishing to the near post,
then she's trying to glide past to the far post. Headed straight up. Corner kick.
They scored on the last one. Right side. Sonnet. Saved by Morais. The flag never went up.
I'm not sure if Moran thought she was in an offside position or not. U.S. The big cross.
And she just overshot her North Carolina Courage teammate, Jessica McDonald.
And this ball had such a good trajectory on it. She pulls wide. Is it ever.
She passed up a shot. Quick shot. Saved by Brent. That's their best opportunity,
and really first opportunity of the night. Wondering why Silva didn't pull the trigger on
her own earlier. And it was one of the first times they've actually been able to find Tatiana Pinto
at the base that they're done. Looking across. Short. Delivers. Off the fingertips of Morais,
and headed out for a corner for the U.S. Good aggressive wide play by the combination of
Morais. The U.S. won that first ball. The second one was drilled. Over here in the 66th minute.
Portugal still in some trouble. Morais had to punch it out.
Dunn settles. Chips. Wide of a diving. Goal kick. McDonald. This game has become more open in the
second half. First it was Portugal on the other end. Then the U.S. comes down. Got one wide to
last cycle. Here's Short. Into the middle. Shot. Up the post. So close. Such a good build up by
the United States on that far side. Katie talked about Casey Short wanting to get involved in the
attack. Portugal are rated 30 in the world. They are improving. The cacophony of noise.
And can't finish it. Big chance. How good is this ball? Abby Dahlkemper looking up and just places
it perfectly in her fantastic save from the goalkeeper there to deny Carly Lloyd who must
score this time. And does. Continues her hot scoring streak at the USA. It took them 21 minutes,
but they've done it. Pereira with the smile because there's only so many bites you can give
Carly Lloyd at that apple before. Right under the crossbar and off the underside of the path.
It was McDonald's header. And she's wondering how she didn't score. And this is an area Portugal
just cannot continue to take. Tatiana Pinto wanted too much time and then Buis.
Two saves from the young sporting Lisbon goalkeeper to save Portugal this time.
Lloyd. Heath goes down. That was inside the box. Yeah. Penalty. Again it was Borges with the
challenge. That's been a running battle between those two. And I think it's fair to say that
Carly Lloyd greedy for another goal. And gets it. Perfect penalty. No stopping that.
But was it a penalty? Let's have another look. Was it camped out? And they might have had another
one over McDonald. Carly Lloyd is on for a hat trick here. In front of Carly. We put the fourth
up there. Christine Lilly. Oh it's another chance here for a third goal. But this time Carly Lloyd
is not able to strike. She scored. She's out there. That's a lovely ball through. And Kristen
Press had a chance there to score with what would have been only about her second touch since coming
on. Oh it's a fantastic effort from first of all Press. And then McDonald hits the bar again.
She can't believe that. Jessica McDonald. That's twice she's hit the crossbar. Both ends.
The pace in which Press hits this ball too. I mean she got. Morgan Bryant.
The U.S. and I think the goalkeeper got something on that. She's not the biggest.
That goalkeeper Ines Pereira. But I think she just may have got a touch on that.
Here comes the U.S. corner. Lindsey Horan scores. 3-0. Always had the momentum.
Was always going to win that ball. And planted it in the back of the net.
12th goal for our country. I've never been a fan of this zone right here.
That is the final whistle. And Jill Ellis has equalled Tony DiCicco's record of 105 wins
as coach of the U.S. women's team. Carly Lloyd scoring her 116th and 117th goals
for her country tonight.
