RIO DE JANEIRO -- The United States could make another bold statement in womens field hockey at the Olympics on Monday.A win over No. 3 Australia would give the Americans victories over two of the worlds top three teams in its first two Olympic matches. The Americans defeated No. 2 Argentina 2-1 in their opener on Saturday.Another win would not only add confidence, it would move the squad closer to qualifying for the quarterfinals. The top four teams in each six-team pool advance.Another great opponent, U.S. goalkeeper Jackie Briggs said. Weve played them a couple times in the last month. Theyre a great team, but we know if we play our game and stick to our gameplan, we can beat anybody.The Americans also could deal a blow to Australia. The Hockeyroos dropped their opener to Britain 2-1 on Saturday.Obviously disappointed to start with a loss, Australia defender Georgina Morgan said. But I think the standard we set was pretty good, and we obviously want to improve each game, so I think thats probably a good place to start.The Hockeyroos feel they werent far from their usual level of play. Australia outshot Britain 13-7.We play a very fast, attacking, counter-type of hockey, and I think youll see that that comes out throughout the tournament, Morgan said. I think you saw a lot of it (against Britain). When weve really got the run of play, I think its quite hard to defend.The United States defeated Australia in the Champions Tourney in June to capture third place and set the tone for the Olympics.The Americans bounced back from a sluggish start to defeat Argentina. The United States limited Carla Rebecchi, one of the worlds best scorers, to two shots and no goals. United States coach Craig Parnham felt the win over the Argentines was no fluke -- he simply felt the Americans outplayed a capable team.Its crazy because I think Argentina is a very good team, he said. They played very well tonight. I thought our platform was set by our defense, and, that gave us some opportunity to score.Even after Saturdays victory, the Americans remained focused on growth and letting the results take care of themselves.We dont shy away from our mistakes and things we can learn, Briggs said. We dont shy away from it. We take it head on. We try to improve and learn and grow from how we played before.---Follow Cliff Brunt on Twitter (at)CliffBruntAP Wholesale Air Jordan 3 .

George Hill stole a bad pass and was going in for a layup, and Pierce hustled back and appeared to be trying to wrap him up.Substitute Alvaro Morata scored an extra-time winner for Juventus as they beat AC Milan 1-0 to clinch the Coppa Italia. The Spanish striker emerged from the bench in the 108th minute, and fired the decisive goal just two minutes later at the Stadio Olimpico on Saturday night.The result secured a second consecutive domestic double for Juventus, becoming the first Italian team in history to do so. For AC Milan, its now five years since they last won a trophy, and it also means theyll be without European football next season. Thirty-four points separated the sides at the end of the Serie A season, but you wouldnt have been able to tell that from the opening 45 minutes as seventh-placed Milan dominated the champions.Cristian Brocchis side got out of the traps early and did superbly to quell an out-of-sorts Juventus, but failed to convert possession and territory into any real chances. AC Milans Giacomo Bonaventura (L) vies with Juventus Daniele Rugani Too often Milan worked the ball into great positions, but failed to produce anything of any real note in terms of a final pass, cross or shot. Davide Calabria was perhaps more guilty than most. On a number of occasions the right-back found space down the flank for Milan, but he managed to turn hitting the first man with his crosses into something of an art form over the course of the first hour.Paul Pogba, so often the inspiration for Juventus, cut a largely frustrated figure in the middle of the park for most of normal time, too often trying to take the game to Milan on his own.One of his runs into the box did, however, produce arguably their best chance of the game after 69 minutes,, as he latched onto substitute Alex Sandros fine reverse pass before seeing his effort almost deflected just inside the near post.dddddddddddd. But 17-year-old Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma got down well to keep it out. Patrice Evra of Juventus and Davide Calabria of AC Milan in action Neither side was good enough, in truth, to deserve the victory in 90 minutes, but the attacking quality didnt really improve at first in extra-time either.Juves attacking pair of Mario Mandzukic and Paulo Dybala were struggling, while Carlos Bacca wasnt doing much better at the other end for Milan.It took 104 minutes for the Colombian to have anything approaching a sight of goal, and even then it wasnt an easy chance. A loose header from Giorgio Chiellini dropped to him in space in the box, but he couldnt quite squeeze his overhead bicycle kick under the bar. Juventus celebrate after winning the Coppa Italia Juventus boss Max Allegri waited until the second half of extra time to unleash Morata, and his decision to finally do so paid off almost immediately.A Juventus break saw another substitute in Juan Cuadrado released down the right, before his lifted cross was finished first time with a superb clinical touch by Morata at the far post. Milan responded straight away as Brocchi threw on Mario Balotelli for the closing minutes, but the man who has become known for creating drama couldnt produce any more as Juventus held on for victory.
