PARIS — The U.S. women’s national soccer team broke away to a 2024 Olympic title here at the Parc des Princes on Saturday, completing a near-instant turnaround under new coach Emma Hayes with a gold medal.

The USWNT won a third consecutive knockout match 1-0, this time over Brazil, and this time led by a third different dynamic attacker.

After a rough first half, Mallory Swanson sped clear of the Brazilian defense and capped her own personal comeback from a gut-wrenching knee injury with the first and only goal of the game.
