USA women draw with Costa Rica amid sweltering heat in final Olympic tune-up
Bermudez shines in goal as Costa Rica and USWNT draw Emma Hayes’ group open Olympics on 25 July in Nice
The heat was on for the US women’s soccer team’s final tune-up before the Paris Olympics, with sweltering temperatures in the air and plenty of chances to score.
The goals did not come in a 0-0 draw against Costa Rica on Tuesday night, just the second time – and first since 2015 – the US did not win its last game before a major tournament. But the match showed the Americans could handle the kind of high temperatures that could await later this month.
