USA vs. New Zealand Women's Soccer: Game 2 Date, Time and Live Stream Info

For the second time in four days, the No. 1-ranked U.S. women's national soccer team will host New Zealand in a friendly showdown on Wednesday in Columbus.

The Americans scored three goals in the first half of Sunday's match in San Francisco en route to burying the Kiwis 4-1. The victory was Team USA's 10th in a row over New Zealand and has the Football Ferns in desperate need of a positive result in Game 2 in order to keep this duel competitive. 

The U.S. is now unbeaten in its last 75 matches on American soil, 66 of which were victories.

Top Storyline: Does New Zealand Stand a Chance?

Let's face it: The Kiwis looked completely over-matched in Game 1 in San Francisco this past weekend, suffering a 4-1 blowout loss to Team USA. Therefore, it's fair to say that Wednesday's top storyline will center on whether Game 2 can produce a compelling match.

The fact that the U.S. led 3-0 at halftime and four different Americans scored in Game 1 doesn't bode well for New Zealand or fans hoping for a competitive match.

While the Football Ferns are a scrappy bunch capable of disrupting the U.S. and frustrating them at times, they will have to make major strides in every key area in order to avoid being out-classed once again. 

Remember, this is a New Zealand squad running out of potential answers having dropped 10 straight to Team USA.

Prediction

It's no secret by now that USA-New Zealand has been a one-sided affair over the years, with the Americans winning every meeting since the two nations' first-ever matchup.

And if you don't put tons of stock into trends, the U.S.'s 66-0-9 record on home soil dating back to 2004 will certainly have you riding the American bandwagon this week.

While you can anticipate a motivated and somewhat embarrassed New Zealand squad to play a determined match on Wednesday, don't expect the Football Ferns to come away with an upset win.
