On this day in 2002, soccer star Abby Wambach scored her first international goal, against Finland, in a 3-0 win for the Americans. It also was her first career start and her second appearance for the red, white and blue.
The U.S. women's national soccer team will wrap up its two-game series against Scotland Wednesday night in Nashville, Tenn., before heading to Portugal early next month for the Algarve Cup. All eyes will be on Abby Wambach, who will wear the captain's armband in honor of her 200th appearance for the Stars & Stripes.
