USA women's soccer win gold

Yesterday the USA women's soccer team won the gold medal match over there rival Japan. This was a very exciting game that topped off an incredible tournament for the USA. The team went into extra time in the semi finals against a strong Canadian team, both teams not scoring for the 30 minutes of extra time. Then in the last 30 seconds of stoppage time Alex Morgan knocked a header in right over the goalie's grasp to put the USA into the gold medal final. My family and I went absolutely nuts but their quest wasn't over. They lost in penalty kicks to the same Japanese team just last year in the world cup. So revenge was on their minds as they went out and got on the Japanese early getting out to a 2 to 0 lead and eventually holding on to win 2 to 1. The game was really exciting to watch and to see the USA team triumph and get redemption over the same team that beat them in the world cup was awesome. The Olympics are such a great time in athletics and we can't take it for granted.
