USWNT Advances to Olympic Final with Win Over Germany

News summary

The United States Women’s National Team (USWNT) reached the final of the 2024 Olympic Women’s Tournament with a 1-0 extra-time victory over Germany, marking their first Olympic final appearance since 2012. Sophia Smith scored the decisive goal five minutes into extra time, showcasing her growth as a player after a challenging World Cup. The match was characterized by intense physicality, with the USWNT managing to contain Germany's offense despite suffering the most fouls in a half of the tournament. Coach Emma Hayes successfully led the team to the gold medal match, a feat the last two coaches failed to achieve in the past eight years. The USWNT will face either Spain or Brazil for the gold medal on Saturday in Paris, aiming to reclaim their past Olympic dominance. Notably, goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher recorded her third clean sheet of the tournament, crucial for the team's success.
