FIFA Women's World Cup · Final · 5 July 2015

Lloyd's Sixteen-Minute Hat-Trick

United States 5–2 Japan · BC Place, Vancouver

Three goals, sixteen minutes, one from the halfway line.

Four goals in sixteen minutes ended the final before Japan had settled. Lloyd took the first two from set pieces, then spotted Kaihori off her line and hit one from the halfway line. Japan pulled two back, but the damage was done.
