Daughter of NBA legend shoots USA into the semi-finals
The US women's soccer team became the first team to reach the Olympic semi-finals on Saturday thanks to Trinity Rodman!
The daughter of former basketball star Dennis Rodman scored the decisive goal in a 1-0 overtime win against Japan in Paris. The 22-year-old scored from an acute angle (105.+2). The US team is now going for its fifth Olympic gold medal. The record Olympic champions will face Germany in the semi-finals in Lyon on Tuesday.
Germans prevail in penalty shoot-out
The Germans beat Canada 4:2 on penalties after 120 goalless minutes. The Canadians had won gold in Tokyo 2021 and reached the quarter-finals despite a six-point deduction for an illegal use of drones during training by group opponents New Zealand.
World champions Spain also had to go to a penalty shoot-out, but also prevailed 4-2 after a 2-2 draw against Colombia. The Spaniards will now face Brazil. The South Americans knocked the hosts from France out of the competition 1:0.
