The United States women's national team is squaring off against England in the semifinals of the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup on Wednesday in Lyon, France. Both teams are back in the semifinals after making it there four years ago in Canada. The English national team has yet to make an appearance in the Women's World Cup final. The Americans, on the other hand, are looking to become the first team to reach three consecutive finals as they try to defend their 2015 championship.
The U.S. entered the game having scored in the first 12 minutes of every game at this tournament, and they kept that trend going just 10 minutes in. Christen Press opened the scoring with a fine header off a cross from Kelley O'Hara. Press started in place of Megan Rapinoe, who didn't warm up with the rest of the team due to what's being reported by the Fox TV crew as a hamstring injury. The lead was short-lived thanks to Ellen White, who scored her sixth goal of the tournament in the 19th minute. The USWNT responded by regaining the lead 31 minutes in with an Alex Morgan header, scoring on her 30th birthday.
The United States is a half-goal favorite entering the 3 p.m. ET kickoff in Lyon, France -- stream in English and Spanish via fuboTV (Try for free). The winner will get to stay in town (possibly in the same hotel as the Lionesses, which irked coach Phil Neville and the English tabloids) for Sunday's big final at Stade de Lyon.
