At the opposite end of the age spectrum, 17-year-old Lily Yohannes entered in the second half of play, immediately drawing a penalty with her footwork that Lindsey Heaps wouldn't miss. It's a match where the USWNT could've run up the score more if not for strong goalkeeping from Brazil but it was also a positive performance for Hayes and the team during the start of this international break without regulars like Naomi Girma.

After failing to win the SheBelieves Cup on home soil earlier this year, the United States women look for redemption as they contest the first of two friendlies against Brazil at SoFi Stadium in California on Saturday.

Rodman has not appeared in a game for the USWNT since the 2024 Olympics, where she scored three goals to help the team win a gold medal. She did not play for the U.S. during their January camp or the SheBelieves Cup tournament but returned to the NWSL's Washington Spirit in March.
