USWNT in the Olympics

The U.S. Women's National Team (USWNT) has advanced to the gold medal match at the Paris Olympics after defeating Germany in the semifinals, marking their first Olympic final since 2012. The team's success is largely attributed to a potent attacking trio consisting of Mallory Swanson, Trinity Rodman, and Sophia Smith, who have combined for eight goals in the tournament. Swanson, returning from injury, has been instrumental, while Rodman has emerged as a key player, scoring in crucial moments. The USMNT also showed promise with a quarterfinal appearance, their best in 24 years. Meanwhile, MLS commissioner Don Garber celebrated 25 years of growth in American soccer, reflecting on the sport's expanding influence in the U.S. As the Olympics continue, the USWNT aims to reclaim their dominance on the world stage amidst high expectations.
