Led by their two captains, Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe, USA cruised through the group stage, which they began with a tournament-record 13-0 defeat of Thailand.
When tested by world-class opposition in the shape of Spain, France and England in the knockout rounds, the Americans found a way, scoring early in each match and withstanding everything their opponents had to throw at them.
And when it came to the final hurdle, the USWNT lived up to their reputation, beating the Netherlands 2-0 thanks to stellar performances from Rapinoe and breakthrough star Rose Lavelle.
