<description>U.S. head coach Pia Sundhage, on the game: &amp;quot;I have to say it's a good start (to the run of three domestic games). This game had so many things. Some parts were very good in the first half and the people coming off the bench did very well. I said talking to the players, the way we won the game, it's a winning feeling and that is so important to have when we go into the Olympics. This is perfect training for us.&amp;quot;</description>
