USWNT maintains dominance of Jamaica with 4-0 win

Ally Sentnor's first-half brace and two goals by second-half substitute Lynn Biyendolo helped the U.S. women's national team continue its dominance over Jamaica with an easy 4-0 victory in a friendly in St. Louis on Tuesday.

Sentnor scored in the 19th and 28th minutes and Phallon Tullis-Joyce recorded her third shutout in as many career matches.

That should be no surprise. The U.S. has won all six matches in the series by shutout, scoring at least four goals in each.

Biyendolo made it 3-0 in the 60th minute, minutes after coming off the bench. She capped the scoring in the 88th minute on a cross by Avery Patterson for her 24th goal. Patterson got her first U.S. assist.

The U.S. had huge advantages in shot attempts (23-2), shots on goals (10-0) and corner kicks (12-0) and while maintaining 82.4 percent possession.

Sentnor doubled her U.S. output in her ninth match (fourth start). She opened the scoring by taking a setup by Emily Fox and one-touching a shot to the lower left corner.

She was in the right spot for the second score. Alyssa Thompson's shot was blocked, but the ball came to Sam Coffey. An attempt by Coffey went off Jamaican defender Chantelle Swaby directly to Sentnor, who was subbed off the 67th minute.

The lead went to 3-0 after the U.S. had done nothing on its first 11 corner kicks. But on the next one, Biyendolo scored on a rebound of a Claire Hutton header.

The U.S. opened the two-match window with a 3-0 win against China on Saturday. Next are matches vs. Ireland on June 26 and June 29 in Commerce City, Colo., and Cincinnati, respectively. The final summer match will be against Canada in Washington, D.C., on July 6.

A story coming out of the latest two matches was the return of defender Naomi Girma for her first U.S. matches this year. She had been absent due to several nagging injuries after starting 18 matches in 2024.

She was a part of a 27th shutout in her 44th start.
