Shaw, who plays for Manchester City in the Women’s Super League (WSL), was on target twice, first slotting in from three yards out following a beautiful build-up involving Atlanta Primus and Jody Brown to make it 2-0. She grabbed her second goal with just seven minutes left in regulation, dribbling through the South African defense and shooting the ball under the diving goalkeeper.

Coach’s Reaction
