While the United States men's national team is still dealing with the fallout from its failure to qualify for the 2018 World Cup, Thursday night was business as usual for the women's national team.
The United States beat Korea Republic 3-1 in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.
Julie Ertz, Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe scored for the U.S. in the victory.
The win came at a cost for the USWNT after Mallory Pugh exited in the first minute of first-half injury time. She eventually had to be carried off the pitch after she was unable to put any weight on her right leg.
