USWNT flexes its muscle, routs Argentina to win SheBelieves Cup, 6-0

ORLANDO — The U.S. women’s national soccer team won the SheBelieves Cup on Wednesday, which should come as positively no surprise because the world champions have not lost in more than two years and the last hurdle was the lowest in the week-long tournament.

He got them, early and often, during a 6-0 romp over Argentina at Exploria Stadium. The top-ranked Americans breezed to a 16th consecutive victory and extended their unbeaten streaks to 37 games overall and 53 at home.

Until the tournament’s final day, though, the United States (3-0-0) was tested. Victories against top-10 foes Canada and Brazil yielded three combined goals and several uneasy defensive moments.
