The United States women’s national team (USWNT) defeated Uzbekistan, 9-1, on Saturday, April 9 at Lower.com field in Columbus, OH.

Uzbekistan came into the game as the 48th ranked team in the world in comparison to the number one ranking the USWNT had. After the game, this wide margin was clearly seen as Uzbekistan was outmatched physically, skill-wise and tactically.

Sophia Smith, who came in with only one goal in her international career, scored a hat trick and showed off her dynamic playmaking abilities.
