San Francisco Chronicle Sports - Spoken Edition show

Summary: A year of change and tumult came to a close in a satisfying way for the U.S. women’s national team Sunday night.And it was also satisfying for the just-shy-of-a-sellout crowd at Avaya Stadium, where the American players were treated, as usual, like rock stars by their squealing fans.The young players performed, the stars scored and the Americans rebounded from a mediocre performance in Vancouver against Canada on Thursday night to dominate their neighbor three days later, winning 3-1.
