Usa v portugal highlights

A stunning conclusion to Group E in the Women's World Cup saw the United States slip from its perch atop the group and narrowly advance to the Round of 16 as the second-place finishers behind the Netherlands. Outplayed for the second consecutive match, the Americans held on for a draw with Portugal that was enough for manager Vlatko Andonovski's group to stave off disaster and extend its tournament run — though plenty of questions will be asked between now and the next time the U. The United States came within inches of being eliminated from the World Cup when Portuguese forward Ana Capeta struck the woodwork in stoppage time after being played in behind the American defense. Capeta's shot in the 91st minute was the closest either team came to scoring in a disjointed game that lacked quality from both teams in the final third. Portugal edged the United States in possession But stability along the back-line is arguably the only positive Andonovski can claim from a game in which the forward-line was nearly invisible, the midfield lacked passing accuracy and the United States rarely showed it was capable of breaking down a stout Portuguese defense. This was the second straight game in which Andonovski's formation was overrun by a team with numerical advantages in midfield, which nullified the impact of midfielder Rose Lavelle, who was inserted into the starting lineup for the first time. Forwards Alex Morgan 34 touches and Sophia Smith 36 touches finished with fewer involvements than every other outfield starter for the USWNT in a reflection of how difficult it was for the Andonovski's side to maintain possession both generally and, more critically, in the final third. Yet in the end, a draw was enough. The United States has advanced to the Round of 16, where they'll face the winners of Group G — likely to be Sweden — this weekend. Really poor game management by the United States late in this game. They should know the goal differential is out of reach given the Netherlands' demolition of Vietnam, so at this point, the only thing that matters is avoiding a loss. Too many unnecessary risks being taken by the Americans in stoppage time. Not a lot of situational understanding being shown here.
