In a friendly match at Dick's Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City, Colorado, the United States Women's National Team (USWNT) secured a 3-0 victory over Japan. Kennedy Wesley, who came on as a substitute at halftime, made a significant impact by scoring her first international goal and assisting on another. The scoring opened just two minutes into the second half when Wesley assisted Naomi Girma, who headed the ball into the net from close range. Rose Lavelle extended the lead to 2-0 in the 56th minute, finishing a fast break with a precise shot from the edge of the penalty box. Wesley capped off the scoring in the 64th minute with a volley from a corner kick, bringing the final score to 3-0. Despite dominating the first half with 9-1 shots, the USWNT went into halftime tied. This match was the last of a three-game series against Japan, where the USWNT won two matches, reinforcing their strong performance ahead of World Cup qualifying later this year.
