Naomi Girma scored her first two international goals and the United States beat Argentina 3-0 on Wednesday night in the team's final match of the year on American soil.
It was the third match in six days for the United States, which also won the first two against Iceland. The matches were the first for the United States since the team won the gold medal at the Paris Olympics this past summer.
Girma, a defender, scored on a header in the 37th minute, then raised her arms and smiled as U.S. coach Emma Hayes applauded her.
Girma played every minute of the Olympic tournament in France. «The ball just fell right in front of me, it was so great,» Girma said. «I was like, I don't think I can miss this.
