@optajack.optajoe.com87 - The #USWNT trailed for 87 minutes against Spain after conceding in the 3rd minute on Saturday.
They've only trailed longer in a match once this century: 88 minutes after conceding at 2' vs. Norway in a 2-0 loss in the 2008 Olympics.
Unfamiliar.
@pcattry.bsky.socialFT: #USWNT 0, Spain 2
second half was pretty redeeming for the U.S., who limited Spain to zero shots after the break, this was just one of those textbook examples about how games can get away from you quickly against teams like Spain (and that's what friendlies are for)
@jeffkassouf.bsky.socialFT: #USWNT 0, Spain 2
Spain scored twice early as the U.S. struggled to find this game in the opening 15 minutes. The U.S. was much improved in the second half -- nearly 2.0 xG to Spain's <0.5, and U.S. had a penalty saved -- but they couldn't convert. They meet again Tuesday.
@marioamaya28.bsky.socialFull-Time: USWNT 0-2 Spain
Spain walks away with a victory after scoring two goals in the first 15 minutes. USWNT had 12 shots on goal, and Lily Yohannes penalty kick was saved in the 2nd half. Both teams face off once again Tuesday night in Chester, PA
@ajsportstat.bsky.socialFinal score: #USWNT 0-2 Spain.
A game that was not as unbalanced as the score line suggests as the teams were separated by two moments that highlighted stark differences in midfield quality and finishing ability.

@kelonzi.bsky.socialNot sure what's more infuriating, the hair pull or that clown show of a response from the Spanish player.
Gal. You did that. It's the right call. Now get TF off the pitch.
@equalpitchfootball.bsky.socialAthenea del Castillo sent off after subbed in 90 seconds ago for pulling the hair of the opponent.
IFAB needs to seriously rewrite the laws or something when it comes to hair pulling both in the women’s and men’s game.

@marioamaya28.bsky.socialVAR checked for a possible red card for violent conduct, and after the VAR check, Spain is down to 10 players after it was determined that Athenea del Castillo pulled Michelle Cooper's hair. #USWNT
@equalpitchfootball.bsky.socialPoor penalty take from #LilyYohannes
@rathjen.usDel Castillo walking off like “what did I do” is disgusting #uswnt
