4-0 in East Hartford, Connecticut, last night are the same numbers that the USA won with last week and in total the USA is 17-0 in goal difference on the six straight victories the team has since the meeting with Sweden in April.
- Every time we go out on the field, people expect us to win big.
"I do not think those expectations have changed," national team captain Vlatko Andonovski told ESPN after the match.
Lina Hurtig's header in the 1-1 match in April is the only goal the USA conceded in 2021, the team has a total of 37-1 in goal difference in this year's twelve international matches and has not lost since January 2019.
Do the fourth Olympics
Judging by the farewell match before leaving for Japan, the US veterans are hungry for the Olympic premiere against Sweden on July 21.
Carli Lloyd and Tobin Heath, who are both making their fourth Olympics, scored two of the goals before the match was mostly played in the second half.
Sweden's win on penalties in the quarterfinals in 2016 meant that the USA for the first time ever missed the final in the women's Olympic football tournament.
In addition to the USA, Australia and New Zealand play in Sweden's group in Olympic football.
