USA 0-0 Sweden: Americans held to scoreless draw at Women's World Cup

The United States women's team played better in its second World Cup game, but could not avoid a scoreless draw with Sweden.

The USA and Sweden played to a scoreless draw Friday night in Winnipeg in 2015 FIFA World Cup Canada competition. A victory could have clinched at least a tie for the U.S. in Group D competition. Now the U.S. heads into its final game of group play, Tuesday at 8 p.m. against Nigeria.

The U.S., ranked second in the world, is favored against No.
