United States Women's Soccer got revenge for a loss to Mexico earlier this year with a 1-0 victory in the rematch on Saturday
Mexico beat the United States for just the second time ever at the CONCACAF Women's Gold Cup in late February. Lizbeth Ovalle and Mayra Pelayo scored in a 2-0 Mexico victory.
Alyssa Naeher, the U.S. captain for the match, was honored on the field before the game for her 100th appearance with the national team. She earned the cap back in March.
"It just means a lot to me," Naeher said. "I've been on this scene for a long time and I think even seeing this weekend with the 99ers here, and having played with some of those guys and now getting the opportunity to play with the next generation, is something really cool and special to me."
