The Spanish national team stuck around for a while, but in the end the Americans blew them away.

Tina Thompson looked fine and scored 17 (as did Spain's Valdemoro); Lisa Leslie banged up her hip early but returned. Thompson says a second-half defensive clampdown keyed the US win.

Voepel watched Sylvia Fowles. So did Leslie, who said afterwards: "When I go out of the game I always say to Sylvia... 'Keep the party rolling.'"

One source of concern for Team USA going forward: tempers, especially Diana's. DT got very chippy during the first half, after confrontations with Isabel Sanchez: it didn't matter, but it might have done.

The official Olympic site has video for an interview with Katie Smith.
