Jeff Rueter and Steph Yang dissect how the U.S. took the top spot in Group B with one game to go. Swanson crashed the box for the second U.S. goal, catching Smith’s rebounding shot off Germany goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger. In the second half, everyone was looking tired, especially with no rotation in the starting XI from the first game. For a second straight game, Williams was brought on late to ice the game as a pressing-minded forward. Ultimately, Sonnet looked the part throughout the second half.
