VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) -- Carli Lloyd came up big again. Three times. And with it came the Americans' elusive third Women's World Cup title.
BOX SCORE: UNITED STATES 5, JAPAN 2
Lloyd scored a hat trick as the U.S. burst to a four-goal lead in the first 16 minutes, and the Americans overwhelmed defending champion Japan 5-2 Sunday for their record third championship and first since 1999.
