The USA women’s soccer team had much to celebrate last night at Wembley Stadium. The USA squad defeated Japan last night in a thrilling 2-1 victory! USA’s Carli Lloyd lead the team to gold by scoring not one, but BOTH of the two goals for the Americans!

USA took an early 2-0 lead over Japan. Lloyd’s first goal was set up by Alex Morgan, another key player on the squad. Her second goal was achieved by dribbling quickly down the field and firing the ball 20 yards out from the goal and past Japan’s goalkeeper Fukumoto. Lloyd commented on her second goal stating that dribbling down the field and firing from far out is what she does best.

Over 80,000 people flooded Wembley Stadium to catch the action between Japan and the United States. This was the largest crowd to ever attend a women’s game outside of North America!

Congratulations to all of the USA athletes! Did you happen to see the game? Let us know what you thought on our Facebook page, linked HERE

The USA soccer team clinched a last minute win in extra-time to seal their spot in the women’s Football final with a 4-3 victory over Canada! This is not the first time the USA women’s team has made it to the finals with a thrilling come from behind win

The final match for the USA team will be a repeat of last year’s match up in the World Cup final against Japan. Last year, the top ranked USA team lost to Japan on penalty kicks.

The Americans were preparing for a shootout before USA’s Alex Morgan won the game for the team! Morgan’s 10-yard header went over Canadian goalkeeper Erin McLeod’s head, avoiding a shootout.

USA Women's Soccer is Hard to Beat!

The United States Women’s National Soccer team is off to a great start at the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London! The Americans have already earned enough points to advance them to the next round! However, they still need to put forth their best effort against North Korea in tomorrow’s match!

If the Americans win their next match against North Korea, they will most likely avoid the Group F winner. North Korea won their first game in London against Columbia but fell short in their second match against France.

If you’re an American soccer fan, the name Alex Morgan probably sounds very familiar! The 21 year old player is key for the American squad. She is quick, creative, knows how to score a goal and is tough to stop! Another top playing on the squad is goalkeeper Hope Solo, who has been referred to as the world’s best keeper.

Are you a fan of Alex Morgan or Hope Solo? Will you tune into the squads next match in the Olympic Games? Let us know on our Facebook page, linked HERE
