CARSON, Calif. -- It was an eventful year for the U.S. womens national team off the field, with Hope Solos suspension after the Rio Olympics, lawsuits over the expiring collective bargaining agreement and Megan Rapinoes protest during the national anthem dominating the headlines.But in their final match of the year, the Americans offered a summary of how things played out on the field in equal parts fulfillment and disappointment, with Crystal Dunn, Christen Press, Morgan Brian and Samantha Mewis scoring to help the U.S. beat Romania 5-0 on Sunday night at the StubHub Center.The U.S. blistered Romania with 31 shots and did not allow a shot, but U.S. coach Jill Ellis was not happy with the teams wastefulness.I think we left a lot to be said, Ellis said.The same could be said of a year in which the Americans went 22-0-3 in regulation play, scoring 92 goals and conceding 10, but failed to defend their Olympic gold medal after losing to Sweden on penalty kicks in the quarterfinals. Still, the U.S. ended on a largely positive note.I think we all reacted well to it and 2017 is going to be an intense year, Dunn said.An own goal in the 20th minute opened the scoring for the U.S. when Dunns cross was chested into the net by Teodora Meluta. Dunn scored her 14th goal this year in the first minute of first-half stoppage time, sprinting past two defenders to take a pass from Press and put a shot between Roxana Opreas legs.Press made it 3-0 in the 55th minute, connecting with Tobin Heath on a give-and-go and scoring for the fourth consecutive game. Press had a hat trick Thursday night in San Jose in the Americans 8-1 victory over Romania.Brian scored on a penalty kick in the 88th minute and Mewis added a goal in the first minute of additional time.Rapinoe wasnt included on the U.S. roster for the second consecutive match.Ellis is planning to hold camps for the national team and the Under-23s in January, operating on the assumption that they will be conducted under the current contractual structure. But Ellis did not know the status of negotiations between players and U.S. Soccer.I dont get involved in that, Ellis said. Thats between them and lawyers and all that good stuff.

But now we have to keep going, said Weiser, who returns to face former side Bayern in Munich on Wednesday.Baayerns goal difference is five better than Herthas but the defending champion was made to work hard for its 3-1 home win over Ingolstadt on Saturday, when Borussia Dortmund underlined its title credentials with a 6-0 rout of Darmstadt.dddddddddddd--AUGSBURG 1, MAINZ 3Japan forward Yoshinori Muto scored to seal Mainzs first Bundesliga win of the season.Mainz forward Jhon Cordoba opened with a header off a corner in the seventh minute but it was the second half before the home side threatened a response.Konstantinos Stafylidis finally equalized in the 73rd with a fine strike from outside the penalty area, only for Yunus Malli to restore the visitors lead two minutes later with a header from Daniel Brosinskis cross.Muto sealed the win with around 10 minutes remaining when he prodded the ball home from close range after Augsburg failed to clear.Mainz midfielder Jose Rodriguez came on for his Bundesliga debut with five minutes remaining and was sent off with a straight red card for a dangerous tackle on Kohr in injury time.Kohr clutched his left knee and appeared to be in serious pain before he was taken off.
