The USA were 3-0 up at half-time but struck 10 times in the space of 40 second-half minutes, with Alex Morgan scoring five in the 13-0 win. "You want your forwards hot in a tournament and it's a great start, especially for Morgan. Morgan's five goals mean she has more goals than any other team has scored at the World Cup so far - with France's 4-0 win against South Korea in the opening game the biggest margin of victory until now. "When it comes to celebrations, this was a really good team performance and it was important for us to celebrate with each other."
