Sophia Smith scores twice in the opening minutes and the Americans roll to a 5-0 win in the CONCACAF W Championship, then they are assured of their World Cup spot when Haiti beats Mexico, 3-0.
MONTERREY, Mexico — Sophia Smith scored twice in the opening minutes and the U.S. women’s national team clinched a spot in the 2023 World Cup with a 5-0 victory over Jamaica on Thursday night in the CONCACAF W Championship and some help from Haiti.
Rose Lavelle scored in the 59th minute and Kristie Mewis added a goal in the 83rd. Some three minutes later Trinity Rodman, the Orange County product who is the daughter of former NBA player Dennis Rodman, scored her second international goal. Megan Rapinoe was not available for the match because she was at the White House on Thursday to receive the Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor.
