Breakthrough Goal from Mexico Ends Impressive 33-Match Streak for USWNT at CONCACAF W Gold Cup

As the United States Women’s National Team (USWNT) continues to play Mexico in the CONCACAF Women’s Gold Cup, top forwards Trinity Rodman and Sophia Smith are having trouble finding the back of the net.

As the United States Women’s National Team continued to struggle, Mexico’s Jacqueline Ovalle scored a goal in the 38th minute. The United States Women’s National Team (USWNT) was already falling behind, but Ovale’s strike shattered the great CONCACAF achievement that they had been boasting about over the course of the previous 33 games.

In the last 33 games that have been played in the official competitions of the CONCACAF, the United States Women’s National Team has not allowed a single goal to be scored against them. Jacqueline Ovalle’s late first-half finish broke the illustrious record that the 2019 World Champions had previously held.

These 33 games have resulted in a 158-0 victory for the United States squad over its opponents. In light of the fact that both teams have the same number of shots on goal, it is highly unlikely that the United States stars will be able to better Mexico in terms of scoring throughout the encounter.

Alex Morgan, a seasoned attacker, was called off the bench by USWNT manager Twila Kilgore in an effort to put an end to the team’s difficulty scoring goals. Following a series of events, Morgan is now participating in the CONCACAF tournament.

In the beginning, Twila Kilgore did not include the two-time World Champion on the roster of the United States Women’s National Team. She emphasized that she would offer younger players more opportunities. After some time had passed, Kilgore reversed his decision and contacted the San Diego Wave superstar.

In the United States Women’s National Team’s first game of the tournament, Alex Morgan scored a goal. Because the United States Women’s National Team (USWNT) and Mexico are currently competing against each other, the outcome of this match will determine who finishes first in Group A.

Regardless of the circumstances, the United States Women’s National Team has already secured a spot in the knockout stages of the tournament. Despite having played for an hour and twenty minutes, the United States squad has not been able to score a goal against Mexico. There is a possibility that Mexico will emerge as the group’s leader if the misfiring continues.

Following that, they will compete against the second or third seeds in Group B, who are comparatively weaker than them. If the United States Women’s National Team falls below Mexico, they will play against the winner of the adjacent group, which is most likely going to be Brazil.

This following weekend will be the time when the quarterfinals of the W Gold Cup will take place. All of the quarterfinals are played at the BMO stadium in Los Angeles. After that, the semifinals will be held on March 6th, and the championship match will eventually take place on March 10th.

The CONCACAF Women’s Gold Cup is being held for the very first time this year. Given that the United States is hosting the tournament, it is anticipated that their women’s team will go all the way and win the first-ever championship. On the other hand, if the 2019 World Champions want to make it all the way to the championship game, they will need to put an end to their poor performance.
