US faces Portugal with Women’s World Cup future still up in the air

Associated Press  

AUCKLAND, New Zealand — The United States heads into its final group match at the Women’s World Cup with questions swirling about the team’s tactics. “We just didn’t want to jeopardize anything because I thought all three of our forwards were very good, dangerous, created opportunities and were a handful.” It was the first time that the United States had made just one or fewer substitutions in a World Cup game since 2007. DeMelo hadn’t played in a match with the national team until the send-off game against Wales in San Jose, the day the team departed for the World Cup. Telma Encarnacao and Kika Nazareth each scored in the match against Vietnam, which made history as Portugal’s first win in its first World Cup appearance.
