Lisa Carlin, Christine Cupo, and Sandra Herrera unpack a "scrappy" USWNT performance following the Emma Hayes-led side's comeback win over the Netherlands. Lynn Williams got the winner after Veerle Buurman opened the scoring before restoring parity with an unfortunate own goal.

The A3 crew discuss Hayes' personnel changes, the USWNT's struggles across the field, and what comes next for the reigning Olympic champions.
