USWNT beats Puerto Rico 10-0 in Olympic qualifier

Puerto Rico gave up a total of 15 goals in losses to Mexico and Costa Rica, both of whom had been dominated by the world champion United States in their first two games of the Olympic qualifying tournament. So it was hardly surprising that the Americans walked off the field in Frisco, Texas with a 10-0 win on Monday.

On paper, the game meant nothing. The U.S. had already clinched Group A. And Puerto Rico, which has a national team in spite of not actually being a sovereign nation – as plenty of territories do in international soccer – had already been eliminated.
