Emma Hayes reacts to her first loss as coach of the USWNT, saying the team will build upon its defeat to Japan in the SheBelieves Cup.

Japan beat the United States 2-1 at the SheBelieves Cup in San Diego on Wednesday to end the Americans' streak of five straight trophies at the annual tournament and hand manager Emma Hayes her first defeat since taking charge of the USWNT.

Football Australia has attempted to tread water for the past six months in its search for a new national team coach. In that time, the Matildas have drifted -- badly.
