World Cup USA team discussion (spoilers) - pRICE cUBE - 06-16-2019

The US teams wins by a measly 3-0. In normal circumstances, 3-0 would be a rout but the previous 14-0 score made it seem relatively small.

They look strong but have yet to face any real competition. I'll withhold judgment until such time.

Great start. If the women continue to outperform the men's teams in viewership/ratings, they really need to start paying them on that basis.

Chile's keeper is one of the best, and she made several spectacular saves that kept it from getting out of hand.

Of course, you can always make that type of argument, and the second goal did come on corner that was incorrectly awarded to the U.S. Still, the U.S. dominated with a largely second string unit.

Even the best keeper needs a defense in front to survive longterm. Chile lacked that defense.
