The United States women’s national team scored in the opening minute of their friendly with Brazil on Tuesday night via Catarina Macario, but it was not enough in the end as the Americans conceded twice, including in the 95th minute, falling 2-1.
There were several changes to the starting lineup by U.S national team manager Emma Hayes with seven new additions to the lineup from Saturday’s 2-0 victory. Forward Trinity Rodman did not dress for precautionary reasons as she builds her minutes from a back injury, and goalkeeper Phallon Tullis-Joyce was given the night off after her standout performance in the first game. Hayes opted to get more game evaluations than make major formation adjustments as the team lined up in the familiar 4-2-3-1 formation they utilized in match one.
Despite the multiple-player rotations to start, the USWNT got off to a rapid start when Macario scored in the opening 35 seconds of the match.
Claire Hutton, a 19-year-old midfielder, won the ball deep in the defensive half and sprung Alyssa Thompson on a pass forward. The winger made a nearly 70-yard sprint into the box before a collision between Brazilian goalkeeper Natascha Honegger and her defender. Macario’s extended effort inside the six-yard box was enough to nab the opening goal.
With plenty of game left, the two sides played an open and transitional first half, each with opportunities to expose space behind opposing defenses. Brazil equalized in the 25th minute with a stunning goal by Manchester City’s Kerolin, who connected on net with a long-range shot that sailed passed Mandy McGlynn near the upper left. The two sides remained level throughout the match until stoppage time.
The tempo of the match shifted from an open, transitional match to some choppy physical play through long stretches. Brazil delivered the final dagger in stoppage time as substitute Amanda Gutierres scored the game winner.
The U.S. will return to action with friendlies against China in May and June.

Ayayiová zvítězila v hlasování před Nadirem Hifim z mistrovského týmu Paříže a Guerschonem Yabuselem z Philadelphie v NBA. Zatímco národní týmy letos skončily na mistrovství Evropy bez medaile, anketu rozhodly úspěchy v klubových angažmá. A tam se Ayayiová pyšní zejména triumfem v Evropské lize, na kterém měla lví podíl, stala se také opakovaně českou šampionkou a zkraje nové sezony přispěla i k zisku evropského Superpoháru. Reprezentaci dovedla ke čtvrtému místu na ME, kde Francie poprvé od roku 2007 skončila bez medaile.Ocenění získala Ayayiová poprvé a stala se nástupkyní Gabby Williamsové z Fenerbahce Istanbul, která tentokrát skončila čtvrtá. Anketa má ženskou vítězku potřetí za poslední čtyři roky, nadvládu přerušil Victor Wembanyama v roce 2023, kdy se stal jedničkou draftu NBA. Letos se hráč San Antonia nevešel do první desítky.
Z neproměněných penalt radost nemám, o to více mě těší výsledek, říkal Bílek
„Mám radost z toho, jak jsme k utkání přistoupili. Přestože se to nevyvíjelo úplně tak, jak jsme chtěli. Chtěli jsme co nejrychleji vstřelit gól, což se nepovedlo, ale hráli jsme trpělivě a od druhé branky už to bylo podle našich představ. Když soupeř běhá bez balónu, tak mu musí odejít síly,“ říkal Bílek po třetím vítězství v kvalifikaci na mistrovství Evropy 2027.Měli jste utkání rozhodnout už v prvním poločase, nebo se to vyvíjelo tak, jak jste předpokládal?Je škoda, že jsme nedali branku dříve, protože jsme do utkání vstoupili dobře. Soupeře jsme přetlačili a horkotěžko se z toho tlaku dostával. Jak jsme v tom ale trošičku nebyli tolik důslední, tak hned vystrčil růžky a ukázal, že když je necháme hrát, tak bychom mohli mít problémy. Pomohla nám první branka, a hlavně pak ta druhá zkraje druhé půle. Po ní jsme se definitivně uklidnili. Ve druhém poločase byla na klucích vidět daleko […]
