Trinity Rodman continues to show the way for the USA in the Olympic Games football. The 22-year-old decided Saturday's quarterfinal against Japan at Parc des Princes in Paris by scoring the only goal of the match in extra time (1–0).

Sometimes it takes a little magic, a little individual brilliance, and that's what "Trin" contributed with, says USA's attacking star Mallory Swanson.

Rodman, daughter of basketball legend Dennis Rodman, collapsed on the pitch after her goal, surrounded by teammates.

I got a blackout. This is the best moment of my career, says Rodman.

It was the 22-year-old's third goal in the Olympic Games tournament.

In the semifinal, the USA will face the winner between Germany and reigning champions Canada, who meet later on Saturday.
