The After Bar: USWNT 6 – Australia 2

Planting the Seed of Soccer Across America: Danny Beerseed

The U.S. women's national soccer team made one last emphatic statement under head coach Pia Sundhage, scoring five unanswered goals to thrash Australia 6-2 at Dick's Sporting Goods Park in Colorado.

Alex Morgan had a pair of goals and Abby Wambach, Heather O'Reilly, Shannon Boxx, and Sydney Leroux all made the scoresheet. 

The Lady Nats will face Germany next from Toyota Park in Bridgeview, IL led by the assistant coaches or perhaps the new national team leader.
