If there was any doubt about how much the most recent United States women's national team roster deviated from the historical norm of consistency, the starting lineup for Wednesday's 3-0 victory over Argentina provided confirmation.
USWNT head coach Emma Hayes followed through on her promises of player rotation and handing out first caps by making 10 changes to the XI that beat Iceland 3-1 three days earlier and starting three players in their first senior international game. The USWNT had not seen three players debut as starters since it fielded an inexperienced squad in 2001 during the preseason of the now defunct WUSA.
