WATCH: Mallory Pugh Scores Brace, Alex Morgan Scores 100th Goal in Thrilling Win Over Australia

The USWNT won a thrilling back-and-forth game against Australia on Thursday as Mallory Pugh scored the winner shortly after coming on and Alex Morgan recorded her 100th international goal in the team's 5-3 win.

While the first half was reasonably even, things weren't looking good for the USWNT at the beginning of the second half.

The USA conceded a goal within the first two minutes to put them down 2-1 after wasting a couple of chances in the first half. That might have been just what the USWNT needed to wake up.

It didn't take long for Tobin Heath to respond, smashing in a header in the 53rd minute to bring her team level and resurrect the USWNT's offense.
