MARSEILLE, France (AP) — Trinity Rodman and Korbin Albert both scored and the United States remained undefeated at the Olympics with a 2-1 victory over Australia on Wednesday to conclude the group stage.
The Americans, who already qualified for the quarterfinals, will play Japan on Saturday at Parc des Princes in Paris. Australia had to wait until the day’s matches were over to learn if it advanced.
The United States is the winningest team at the Olympics, with four gold medals in women’s soccer.
