US Beat England 2-1 To Reach Women’s World Cup Final

The United States of America beat England 2-1 on Tuesday, to reach the final of this year’s Women’s World Cup in France.

A keenly anticipated semi-final encounter saw all three goals scored in the first half the match as Christen Press opened the scoring for the Americans before Ellen White equalized in the 19th minute for England.

The goal that proved to be the winner came off the boots of American star, Alex Morgan 31st minute.

The England women, coached by former Manchester United and Everton star, Phil Neville, had the chance to draw level again but Steph Houghton’s tame penalty kick couldn’t beat the American goalkeeper.

The other semifinal, which sees Sweden battle the Netherlands, will determine who confront the all-conquering Americans in the final.
