The U.S. women’s water polo team have absolutely crushed their competition throughout the Olympics thus far, scoring no less than 11 goals on every opponent they have faced. They had their most impressive win yet with a 13-3 win over Brazil in the quarterfinals, so they likely won’t be slowing down in the semifinals. While Hungary has had not one, but two 13-goal wins in Rio, the U.S. was the only team to keep them from scoring at least 10 goals. We can imagine they’ve got a game plan for how to score more this time around!
Considering two wins is all either team needs to take home the gold medal for their country, both the U.S. and Hungary will surely be fighting to the finish — but USA has more than just this year’s gold medal on the line. As the 2012 London Summer Games gold medal winners, they’re looking for back-to-back Olympic golds, and the team has a 20-game win streak to uphold. No pressure, huh?!
