Game

In the 10th minute, Hawkins lofted a pass over the defense to Wambach, who brought the ball down and put it over Quinones.

The USA made it 2-0 in the 24th minute when Katie Barnes put the ball over Mexicandefense to put Wambach in a footrace with Quinones. She beat Quinones to the ball and flicked it over the leaping goalkeeper..
USA made it 3-0 just before halftime as Ramsey inside the penalty box, passed back to Hawkins who put it away.
"The team played especially well in the first half and overall played well in the two games, but we didn't play a complete 90 minutes in either match," said U.S. head coach Jerry Smith, who picked up his first two international wins. "To play Mexico in Mexico in front of two great crowds was challenge, but we got two victories against a very good and very well coached Mexican team. We're happy with our overall results, but we still need to get better at this level."

Mexican forward Iris Mora once again caused the USA the most trouble and it was she that drew the foul for a penalty kick in the 80th minute after she fell to the ground following a bump from U.S. captain Catherine Reddick. Maribel Dominguez slotted the penalty kick into the lower left corner past U.S. goalkeeper Liz Wagner, who had little to do on the evening in her first international match for the U-21s.

The score would have been higher if not for another excellent match from Quinones, a San Diego State junior who has played some of her best games against the United States. She made 13 saves and denied the USA on breakaways and point blank shots at least a half dozen times

The U-21s will hold a training camp in June at the Arco U.S. Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista, Calif. before Smith picks his team for the Nordic Cup in July.
