SheBelieves Cup: USA's Heaps, Shaw Spark 2-0 Win Over Argentina

Lindsey Heaps scored and assisted as the United States extended its unbeaten streak to seven games with a 2-0 victory over Argentina in the SheBelieves Cup on Sunday in Nashville.

Jaedyn Shaw added her 10th international goal, converting from the top left corner of the box, while the U.S. dominated possession at 67.7% and recorded three shots on target. The Americans have now outscored opponents 27-1 over their past seven matches, including a sixth consecutive shutout. Coach Emma Hayes' team hasn't lost since a 2-1 defeat to Portugal on October 23.

Lindsey Heaps (39th international goal) and Shaw (10th) were key, but the match was marred by injuries. Lilly Reale was substituted after a right leg injury, and Argentina's Milagros Martín received a yellow card for shoving Trinity Rodman in stoppage time. Rodman required treatment and did not finish the match.

The SheBelieves Cup moves to Columbus, Ohio, on March 4 for the final round, where the U.S. will face Canada, who defeated Colombia 4-1 earlier Sunday.
