In a remarkable display of skill and teamwork, the US Women's National Team (USWNT) secured a dominant victory over Argentina with a final score of 3-0 in the Concacaf W Gold Cup. Jaedyn Shaw, only 19 years and 95 days old, showcased her exceptional talent by scoring two of the three goals, marking her as the seventh player to score in each of her first two USWNT starts. Alex Morgan contributed the third goal with a precise header, further solidifying the team's lead. This game also made history as it featured two teenagers, Olivia Moultrie and Jaedyn Shaw, scoring multiple goals in back-to-back games for the first time in USWNT history. The match against Argentina was fast-paced and competitive, with Argentina creating several chances but ultimately unable to break through the US defense. The USWNT's next challenge will be facing Mexico, which comes off an 8-0 win against the Dominican Republic, with the final score being Mexico 8, Dominican Republic 0.

This game is fast and fun 12 minutes in. Argentina is game for it so far. #USWNT
Great game recognition from Horan and Shaw there, and a great finish from Shaw. There's the early U.S. goal. Jaedyn Shaw making things happen. She was literally doing it from her first game in the #NWSL at 17 years old. It's already translating with the #USWNT.
Jaedyn Shaw with the near post finish, extremely tidy and catching Argentina not quite ready there. That's already goal no. 3 for her. #USWNT 1 - Argentina 0.
Mariana Larroquette nearly made this reeeeeaaaal interesting. Off the bar from 40 yards! #USWNT on notice... And Jaedyn Shaw responds to score on the other end. 1-0 U.S.
Full time at the Concacaf W Gold Cup: Mexico 8, Dominican Republic 0 Thorough performance from Mexico. Next up for Mexico: #USWNT on Monday. #USWNT v Argentina is coming up in about 45 minutes.
