ARG V USA ( QF 3 ) Hockey World League Semi-Final Valencia


Match Review ARG - USA 3-0
Argentina moved to within touching distance of an Olympic berth as Carla Rebecchi inspired them to a 3-0 victory over USA in the Pan-Am El Classico.
Rebecchi fired home a corner rocket before unleashing a stunning backhand shot to build a 2-0 lead at half-time and Noel Barrionuevo whizzed home another from a set piece to kill off the game.
It was a superb performance from Las Leonas who move a huge step towards Rio in 2016. USA did start well, drawing some big saves from Belen Succi with Paige Selenski and Michelle Vittese buzzing around up front. But once Argentina found their mojo, they were not going to be denied. Rebecchi’s 17th minute corner set the tone, finding a low route past Jackie Briggs.
They continued to squeeze the life out of the USA defence and the press allowed Florencia Habif to intercept and quickly feed the ball into the circle for Rebecchi. With nimble feet, she got out of Briggs’s reach and, moving away from goal, pinged the ball into the top corner. Barrionuevo made the result even more certain, setting up a semi-final date with China while USA go into the fifth to eighth place playoffs against Ireland.
