Emma Hayes was welcomed home to London with fireworks Saturday as the USWNT battled it out with England in front of 78,346 fans at Wembley Stadium. It was a game of push and pull in England’s capital, with both nations failing to capitalize on their chances to end the friendly in a scoreless draw.
It could have been a fairytale start for the Olympic gold medalists if it weren't for the stretching heroics from England goalkeeper Mary Earps, who palmed away an early close-range effort from U.S. forward Alyssa Thompson.
