Team USA won the 10 previous matches against them and outscored the Portuguese 39-0 overall in the series.

USA out-shot Portugal in this most recent match 17-6, but struggled to turn opportunities into goals. Throughout the course of play, six yellow cards were handed out including one to star midfielder Rose Lavelle.
This is Lavelle's second yellow card this tournament which prevents her from playing in their next match, likely against Sweden.
USA was coming off a 3-0 win against Vietnam, who Portugal also had to beat in order to advance.
As we've reported, Boise native Sofia Huerta is on Team USA, but did not see any action in the game against Portugal. She'll have another chance on August 6 at 3am.
