Events

Match Events

  • 0' And we are off! USA vs Vietnam — let the football do the talking.
  • 5' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His USA side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 10' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 14' A stunning finish from Sophia Smith — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 19' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 24' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 29' Vietnam started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 29.
  • 34' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 34 minutes.
  • 39' Both keepers have barely been tested. USA and Vietnam are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 44' Thi Loan Hoang has been relatively quiet despite scoring 0 goals in his last 3 appearances.
  • 45' Sophia Smith with the second goal in the match!
  • 46' A change in the Vietnam ranks — Thi Tuyet Dung Nguyen exits the field as Thi Van Su Ngan enters on 46.
  • 51' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 56' The referee has no hesitation. Lindsey Horan is booked for USA — card on 56.
  • 61' The Vietnam bench stirs into life. Thi Thu Thuong Luong is withdrawn and Thi Kieu Chuong gets his opportunity.
  • 66' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Savannah DeMelo suffering a number of foals already.
  • 71' With 0 assists to his name this season, Naomi Girma is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Vietnam.
  • 76' A moment of madness from Nhu Huynh on 76 minutes earns him a card. Vietnam will be frustrated.
  • 76' Nhu Huynh makes way for Hai Yen Pham at the 76 minute mark. A tactical switch from Vietnam.
  • 77' What a moment for Lindsey Horan! That strike on 77 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 82' USA looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Sophia Smith scoring 2 goals.
  • 84' The USA manager makes a substitution. Crystal Dunn departs to be replaced by Kelley O'Hara.
  • 89' Thi Van Duong has so much to prove this time. He replaces Tran Thi Hai Linh on 89 minute.
  • The final score is 3-0.
