    Heavy touch by Becky, but the Aussie played it out for a throw.

    The Aussies are wearing GPS monitors. Did NBC ever actually say that?

    Lloyd takes one of her signature shots from distance and isn't off by much.

    47' 2-2 USA cross to Wambach a bit too wide at 1m 6-right. She heads back to 5m center, 4 AUS defenders surround it.

    50' 2-2 AUS long ball lets De Vanna run from 30m, turning 1 defender (Sauerbrunn?). Decent shield rides De Vanna down to endline mid-left. Cutback blocked out for a corner. Low, USA clear.

    51' 2-2 Lloyd one-times a square pass at 27m right post, rockets it just high and curling a bit wide right.

    53' 3-2 Morgan feeds Lloyd, who jukes 1 through arc left, but hesitates too long and gets shot down by Darth Vader. AUS clear through arc right. Morgan stops it at 20m mid-left, shoots left-foot low. Ball drills Wambach's planted right toes, deflects high wide left, bounces at 7m left post. Topspin carries it into the left corner! Goal for Morgan, or Wambach? :D

    I guess Wambach got credited for it. Sarah Walsh is done for soccer. I had no idea she had so many knee problems

    56' 3-2 Rapinoe pulls the defense to 22m arc right, passes wide to Morgan. Morgan dives down to endline box right, crosses too far to 3m 6-left. Wambach heads it into the left side netting.

    57' 3-2 Australia subs in (1 of 6) #3 Ashley Brown ('85) for #9(<=c) Sarah Walsh, who sails off into retirement.
