During the group stage of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, the women’s national teams of the United States and Germany faced each other on July 28.
The duel between two great powers of world soccer attracted attention, but the truth is that the match was one sided, as the USWNT won 4-1.
Sophia Smith scored a brace in the 10th and 44th minutes, Mallory Swanson netted in the 26th minute and Lynn Williams added to the scoreline in the 89th minute, while Giulia Gwinn had tied the game 1-1 for Germany in the 22nd minute before the U.S. ran riot.

Germany finished with two wins and one loss to also qualify for the next round.
In the quarterfinals, the USWNT struggled to beat Japan, while the Germans had to go to penalty kicks to eliminate Canada after a 0-0 draw in regular time.
