Under 17 Womens World Cup Semis Set as US defeat Korea Republic

The semifinals are set at the Under 17 Womens World Cup being held in New Zealand.  The US women grabbed one of the four semifinal spots thanks to a solid 4-2 win over Korea Republic on Sunday.  The other three semifinal teams are England, Germany and North Korea.

It was a dominating effort from the US Under 17 Women as they put together their best game of the competition so far.  Courtney Verloo notched a pair of goals while Vicki DiMartino and Kristie Mewis got one each in the victory.  The Americans outshot Korea 20-5 on the day and controlled most of the attack and possession.

The USA will now face Germany in the tournament’s second semifinal after England faces North Korea.  Germany took out Canada 3-1 earlier in the day while England advanced over Japan winning a penalty kick shootout after a 2-2 tie.   North Korea had no trouble in their quarterfinal match smashing Denmark 4-0.
