Sweden beats US 2-1 in women's Four Nations opener
Sweden rallied for a 2-1 win over the United States on Friday in the opening game of the Four Nations Tournament in China, a warmup for this year's women's World Cup in Germany.
The Americans took an early lead when Carli Lloyd headed in the first corner of the game in the 11th minute. But Stina Segerstrom equalized just five minutes later, and Kosovare Asllani netted the winner in the 60th with a shot inside the left post.
In the second game, Canada beat China 3-2 after goals by Candace Chapman, Melissa Tancredi and Christine Sinclair. You Jia scored twice for China.
The U.S. will face Sweden at the World Cup on July 6 in their last opening-round match, after games against North Korea on June 28 and Colombia on July 2.
In Chongqing, the U.S. plays Canada on Sunday and China on Tuesday, when Sweden plays Canada.
