The United States and Canada were unable to reach an amazing semi-final. The United States suffered its first setback in the 20th minute. Goalkeeper Alyssa Naher erroneously fell in her right leg after a cross and had to be substituted after ten minutes.
After the break, Canada came under a lot of pressure and the Americans had good chances through Lloyd and Erts, but goalkeeper Stephanie Lappe kept a strong match again.

Despite the pressure, things still go wrong for the United States. Defender Tierna Davidson wanted to take the ball off her 16-year-old side, but didn’t see substitute Rose coming in and kicked the Canadian’s whole leg.
Referee Katerina Monzul did not initially blow the whistle for this moment, but put the ball on immediately after the intervention of the VAR. Midfielder Jesse Fleming kept his cool 11 metres and fired the ball convincingly past substitute Adrian Franch.
