The US Women's National Soccer Team will face Brazil in the Olympic finals on Saturday. This is the third time in Olympic history that the US and Brazil will face off for the gold medal. AdvertisementFor the first time since 2012, the United States Women's National Team (USWNT) has a chance to go for gold in the Olympics. But to reach its fifth gold medal in Olympic history, the team must first defeat Brazil, led by women's soccer legend Marta in the final international tournament of her career. Per ESPN, USWNT forward Trinity Rodman, 22, told reporters in a pre-game press conference that "Marta has changed the game of soccer around the world," but the US wants to win gold.

The U.S. women's national soccer team is looking to continue its undefeated streak at this year's Olympics as the squad prepares for a second match against Germany in the semifinals. She became the youngest player on the women's squad to score in extra time in a knockout round at the Games since the 2004 Athens Olympics. Marc Atkins / Getty ImagesRodman, along with Sophia Smith, 23, and Mallory Swanson, 26, have been a defining feature of this new era of the U.S. women's national team so far. Winning against Germany would guarantee at least a silver medal as the team moves into the final match. The only other time the women's national team has gone undefeated at the Olympics was in 2012, which was also the last time the team won gold at the Games.

The Olympic sendoff friendlies seemed to clue at an early theory: park the bus, play defense-first soccer and frustrate the United States until you find a chance to try an attack. Although having Coffey back from suspension helped toward that end, the United States was still thin in central areas. Berger and Naeher were both instrumental in keeping the score 0-0 throughout regulation, Berger moreso given the United States’ stronger attacking presence. Tournament Naeher is a different beast from any other level of her play. The United States heads to its first Olympic women’s gold medal match since the 2012 London Games.

Rodman’s extra-time goal keeps USWNT Olympic hopes aliveComing into the Olympics, Rodman’s role with the USWNT had largely been one of a creator. Throughout the group stage, few teams had as well-rounded a line anywhere on a field as the United States’ attack.

The old reliable stars of the team’s golden generation are largely gone. “Any new player coming in, that means you’re one of the best in the country and you have every right to be here. That means this means something, and you’re playing on one of the best teams in the world.

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.

If confidence is on one end of the spectrum, anxiety is at the other, Robertson said. “Confidence is linked to the action systems of the brain,” Robertson said.
