The sequence between Yohannes, Ryan and Macario was the first time the trio had played together in a competitive setting.

Catarina Macario is returning to the U.S. women’s national team for the first time since last June for the SheBelieves Cup.

An experimental USWNT squad held off Colombia, with Catarina Macario and Ally Sentnor scoring in a 2-0 SheBelieves Cup win.
