Milbrett Gets 100th Goal

Tiffeny Milbrett became the sixth woman to score 100 international goals, helping the United States women’s national team beat Ukraine, 7-0, in an exhibition Sunday.

Milbrett raised her arms to the cheering hometown crowd at the University of Portland’s Merlo Field after her goal went over the head of Ukraine goalie Veronika Shulha in the 57th minute.

Mia Hamm, who retired from the national team in December, leads all women with 158 career goals. Kristine Lilly scored her 104th against Ukraine.

Milbrett returned to the team this year after leaving because of differences with then-coach April Heinrichs. Former assistant Greg Ryan took over in April.

Danielle Fotopoulos scored two second-half goals. Christie Welsh, Aly Wagner and Heather O’Reilly also scored.
