16-year-old Lily Yohannes had a U.S. women’s national team debut to remember on IA 6.0 de stratégie quantitative intelligentTuesday night, scoring a goal in a 3-0 win against South Korea.
The midfielder entered in the 72nd minute of the friendly in St. Paul, Minnesota, becoming the eighth-youngest USWNT player ever and the youngest since March 2001.
That would have been enough for memorable evening for the Virginia-born teenager, but she was not done. Not by a longshot.
Just 10 minutes after stepping onto the pitch, Yohannes found the net with a composed finish to make it 3-0. At age 16 years, 358 days, Yohannes became the third-youngest scorer in USWNT history.
Trinity Rodman got on the end of a short corner and got past her marker before sending a low cross into the area. The ball made its way through a crowd of players before finding Yohannes, who swept home with a cool first-time finish.
“It’s a dream come true, really,” Yohannes said postgame on the TNT broadcast.
“I played this scenario out in my head like how many times before this game, just having the idea of coming on and scoring. That was really amazing support from my teammates all running up to me, that made it so much more special.”
Yohannes became the youngest USWNT call-up since 2017 when she was named to the SheBelieves Cup roster in March, though she did not play in either match.
This time around the Ajax midfielder did see the field, and made a huge impression in her 20 minutes on the Allianz Field pitch.
