Rapinoe and Mewes over the ball. Rapinoe.
Goalazo!
One thing you know as an opponent against the United States,
do not give them set-piece opportunities from this distance,
because that is what happens.
...back by Dunne, in equal measure.
Helped on by Mewes to Lavelle, the game's opening up.
Rose Lavelle, lovely run, great goal!
Brilliant goal!
Rose Lavelle might have won the World Cup for the United States
with a fantastic goal.
One of the breakthrough players at this 2019 World Cup
has broken Dutch hearts.
Rose Lavelle with a fabulous goal.
Wonderful run, direct, cut inside.
Van der Gracht found the space, found the shot, found the corner.
And even Sarri van Veenendaal could do nothing.
The long-range effort from Loy, it's a hat-trick.
One of the most incredible goals you're ever likely to see.
Press, Rapinoe with the angled run.
Rapinoe looking for the finish, and Rapinoe provides the finish.
She can do no wrong.
Great to see Rapinoe showing what she can do, because look at this one.
The long ball in, and she has the patience to let that player,
she gets her to bite on that first one, lets her go down,
and then lets the ball, look at this again, she gets her to bite,
fakes that shot, she bites, she lets the ball roll,
and then pulls it across goal when she's coming across the goalkeeper.
That's a good point.
The numbers back for France, but now a step ahead, and there's the second goal.
Kristen Press snuck through as the French got caught sleeping down the middle.
They got caught sleeping, but Kristen Press can do this.
She can lead players.
She picks up the ball in midfield.
One, two, made it look easy, and then just slots it.
This is an excellent goal.
These are two new French center backs,
and their lack of speed was so evident on this play,
and Kristen Press, all she had to do was look up and just easily slot the ball.
She had so much space, and she had so much confidence
when she's in front of the goal like that.
She's just a natural goal scorer.
For a boost, only as far as Klingenberg, sensational goal.
First for the United States.
Take it inside and hit a Philip Lomb, and she did.
Here's that half clear.
Klingenberg is positioned perfectly, and this is just a clinic half-volley finish.
Watch the technique here.
Half-volley, toe down, find the corner of the goal.
Fantastic goal from Megan Klingenberg.
We'll soon get the decision. We have to get the decision soon.
Now to Cheney from right.
Good effort.
Lauren Cheney, that was special,
and is a match winner for the USA, deep into stoppage time.
Brilliant.
Game and saying, I'm going to make a difference here.
Here Lauren Cheney picks it up in midfield
and just rips it into the upper corner,
and sometimes after 91 plus minutes,
that's all you need is someone to say,
okay, this is mine, I'm just going to shoot it from distance.
What a finish.
Quickness on the attack.
Loyd will try a long hit.
This is spectacular.
This is 40 yards out, and that's Sullivan.
Just a nice one-two.
I mean, look at this movement off the ball.
A little triangle play there, and Carly Loyd,
I mean, she's a good 10 yards, 7 yards off that top of the circle of the 18.
Brilliant strength, and look at this triangle.
I love this view of it, this layup, that first-time layup,
and I believe that's Kelly O'Hara,
who then reestablishes, like she can't get the ball back,
but Carly Loyd says, no, this is mine,
and then laces that upper V.
Absolutely searing.
Smashed it.
Ground ball to Gia.
What an absolutely spectacular goal.
Two and two games for Alex Morgan.
Megan Cleaver picks her head up,
realizes there's a gap of space in behind a high German back line,
but look at the agility and her ability to control that ball,
under balance, full speed, have the boys in presence to cheer her on.
She did in the World Cup.
Heath, inside, brought down well,
and there's the goal.
Press, number 5.
