SAN DIEGO — Julie Ertz came in off the bench and scored in the 89th minute, and the United States overcame a late two-goal deficit to beat Brazil, 4-3, on Sunday night in the Tournament of Nations.
The United States was in danger of losing for the fourth time this year before the three-goal flurry in about nine minutes.
Two minutes after Brazil’s Andressinha scored on a free kick in the 78th minute for her second goal of the game, Christen Press countered to make it 3-2 with her 43rd career goal and second of the year.
