Bell started Kim Jung-mi in goal instead of Yoon Young-geul, who had starred on Thursday, and Kim took on a much more lethal United States attack than what she saw from the bench last week.

The United States opened the scoring in the ninth minute, when Lindsey Horan's shot went off a Korea Republic defender and floated over Kim.

The United States captain Lloyd, playing in her 316th and final international match, nearly got her 135th goal in the 27th minute, when her curler from the top of the box got turned aside by the diving Kim.

The United States doubled their lead a couple of minutes before half-time, with Andi Sullivan's header going in off Cho. 

Alex Morgan came on for Lloyd and scored the third goal four minutes later, set up by Megan Rapinoe's through ball.

Rapinoe got on the scoresheet herself in the 85th minute, and Rose Lavelle and Lynn Williams each scored in the final seconds to cap off the win.
