Watch 'Magic' By U.S. Soccer Hero Trinity Rodman To Beat Japan In Olympic Quarter

Trinity Rodman bailed out the U.S. women’s soccer team against Japan in a Paris Olympics quarterfinal on Saturday.

Rodman’s goal in the first period of extra time stunned a stubborn Japanese defense for an eventual 1-0 victory. She controlled a long lead pass, changed direction and fired a left-footed shot to the far side of the goal.

“That’s like the best moment in my career,” she said afterward.

Teammate Mallory Swanson called it a “ bit of magic .”

Fans had other superlatives: “a beaut,” “an absolutely beautiful shot!” and “amazing!”

Rodman, the daughter of former NBA star Dennis Rodman, now has 3 goals but Saturday’s was one for the books.
