With the win, the U.S. have qualified for their sixth U17 Women\u2019s World Cup.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. got things rolling in the 24\u2019 through Mya Townes, who received a pass from Melanie Barcenas and finished for a 1-0 lead. It was then 2-0 at halftime as Kennedy Fuller scored off a cross from Alexandra Pfeiffer in the 40\u2019 to double the margin.<\/p>\n<p>Fuller then scored her eighth goal of the tournament in the 47\u2019 with a smooth right-footed stroke into net, extending the U.S. lead to 3-0. Pfeiffer added her name to the scoresheet in the 59\u2019 when she hauled in a long ball from Katie Scott and scored to make it 4-0.<\/p>\n<p>Haiti never stopped fighting, though, and star striker Lourdjina Etienne notched her seventh goal of the tournament with a penalty conversion in the 80\u2019, cutting the deficit to 4-1.<\/p>\n<p>However, the day belonged to the U.S., who finished in strong fashion thanks to a hat-trick in six minutes from Kimmie Ascanio.<\/p>\n<p>Ascanio found the top right cornet of net for her first score in the 83\u2019, followed two minutes later by her second in the 85\u2019 off a cross from Scott. The trio of goals and 7-1 final scoreline was then completed in the 88\u2019 when she pounced on a rebound off the post and calmly tucked away a Left-footed shot.<\/p>\n<p>Mexico vs Canada<\/p>\n<p>A goal in extra time from Vanessa Aguilar earned Mexico a dramatic 2-1 win against Canada in the day\u2019s second semifinal, earning Mexico their seventh U17 Women\u2019s World Cup appearance.<\/p>\n<p>Mexico were first to find the breakthrough, as a Right-footed strike from Carla Montes Frias off a deflection from just outside the area in the 25\u2019 resulted in a 1-0 lead for the host nation.<\/p>\n<p>Canada looked to respond by playing into dangerous striker Annabelle Chukwu, but there was no way past the Mexican defense and GK Camila Vazquez, who made back-to-back saves in the 74\u2019 to keep her side ahead.<\/p>\n<p>But there was nothing Vazquez could do just a minute later in the 75\u2019 when Chukwu received a ball and unleashed a right-footed shot that beat Vazquez at the near post to even things at 1-1.<\/p>\n<p>Matters had to be resolved in extra time and Mexico would emerge with the decisive strike in the 101\u2019, as Aguilar followed up her initial blocked shot with a fine finish from an acute angle to deliver the 2-1 victory for El Tricolor.<\/p>\n<p>#womensfootball #unitedstates #haiti #mexico #canada #highlights<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udd14 Subscribe to our channel, and turn on notifications: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/concacaf\/view_as=subscriber?sub_confirmation=1 <\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcbb You can also visit our website and enjoy our exclusive content: https:\/\/www.concacaf.com\/ <\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcf1 Follow us on our social networks:<br \/>\nInstagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/concacaf\/<br \/>\nTwitter: https:\/\/twitter.com\/concacaf<br \/>\nFacebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/concacaf<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=mMOAYRcGWZA\">source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Catch all the action from the Semifinals in our highlights package!
