Daily News | Mallory Swanson, Alex Morgan and Trinity Rodman spark the USWNT’s 4-0 win at New Zealand
The U.S. took just three shots and New Zealand one in the first half. Midge Purce was one of the few sparks in a rare start, and she sparked things further at halftime when she told the broadcast: “I think we’re going to get a talking-to, and I think we’re going to come out with more energy.”
Within two minutes of kickoff, Swanson ran down the left and hit a cross over Nayler that Rodman headed wide of the open net. Two minutes after that, Lavelle charged upfield with a full head of steam and shot wide from 18 yards. “We had to find the ball a little more in between their seams, and give it a little in the more in the middle for them to collapse and then find our wingers,” Lavelle said. “Tough first half for us, obviously some things to clean up, but a really good response.”
Williams got to celebrate her comeback with a goal in the 74th minute, a bit of a lucky header but still the product of a well-timed run to meet Rodman’s cross. Amusingly for viewers in Philadelphia, the public address DJ at Sky Stadium played the Union’s goal song for a player whose new club home is Red Bull Arena.
