SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) — Amanda Gutierres scored in stoppage time and Brazil defeated the United States 2-1 on Tuesday night for the team's first victory over the Americans since 2014.

It was the second of two exhibition matches between the teams, meeting for the first time since the United States downed Brazil 1-0 in the gold medal game at last summer's Paris Olympics.

Catarina Macario put the U.S. in front just 34 seconds into the match. After Alyssa Thompson raced the ball down the left side, Macario picked it up and got around Brazil goalkeeper Natascha, who was making just her fourth start. It was Macario’s 10th goal for the national team.

Brazil drew even with Kerolin’s goal from distance in the 24th minute that U.S. goalkeeper Mandy McGlynn couldn’t reach. It was just the ninth goal that the United States allowed since Emma Hayes took over as coach last May.

Gutierres, who came off the bench in the second half, scored off a cross from Luany deep into stoppage time. It was the first victory for a CONMEBOL team over the Americans on U.S. soil. Brazil had not defeated the Americans since December 14, 2014.

“I feel like in the first half we had a lot of chances that we could have put away," Thompson said. "I think the game got away from us in the second half. In the second half, we needed to get more control of the ball and kind of take the momentum away from them.”

McGlynn was making her third start for the national team. Hayes started Phallon Tullis-Joyce in the first match against Brazil, as she evaluates goalkeepers following the retirement of Alyssa Naeher.

“We just kept Brazil hanging in it, and obviously with a very passionate team, they take it all the way," McGlynn said. "I think we could have been a little more front-footed all the way through the second half."

Trinity Rodman, who scored in Saturday's 2-0 win at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, did not dress for the match at San Jose's PayPal Park as a precaution after returning from a back injury.

Rodman was part of the team's formidable front trio nicknamed “Triple Espresso” at the Olympics. Sophia Smith, who now goes by her married name Wilson, is on maternity leave and Mallory Swanson is not with the team for personal reasons.

Alyssa and Gisele Thompson started together for the second time. They are the first sisters to start for the United States since Sam and Kristie Mewis in July 2021.

Hayes made seven changes to her lineup from Saturday’s match. The U.S. starters averaged 17.9 appearances with the national team, fewest for any starting group in 24 years.

The United States has lost two of their last three games. The Americans also fell to Japan in the SheBelieves Cup final in late February.

The national team's next two games are against China on May 31 in St. Paul, Minnesota and June 3 in St. Louis.

FACT FOCUS: Trump exaggerates revenue from tariffs

2025-04-21 23:58 Last Updated At:04-22 00:02

President Donald Trump makes no secret of his love of tariffs. He heralds them as a way of bringing in revenue, striking back at countries he sees as taking advantage of the U.S. in trade, and as a cudgel to push countries to do what he wants. Even Canada and Mexico have been handed heavy taxes.

On April 2, Trump announced far-reaching new tariffs on nearly all trading partners, only to roll most of them back on April 9 after the stock market tanked.

Still, he claims that tariffs, a tax on imported goods, are bringing in billions of dollars a day. On April 8, speaking at the National Republican Congressional Committee Dinner, he said, “We’re making a fortune with tariffs. $2 billion a day. Do you believe it? I was told $2 billion a day.”

Here's a look at the facts.

CLAIM: The U.S. is earning $2 billion per day from tariffs.

THE FACTS: That's false. Trump began raising tariffs in February. That month, about $7.247 billion in customs duties were collected, or $258.82 million per day. In March, the most recent monthly figure available, a total of about $8.168 billion in customs duties was collected, or approximately $263.48 million per day. A customs duty is a type of tariff.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection said in an April 8 statement that as a result of 13 tariff-related presidential actions taken by Trump, it was collecting each day “over $200 million in additional associated revenue.” The agency is responsible for collecting tariffs.

Those numbers are in line with what the U.S. has taken in thus far during fiscal year 2025, which started Oct. 1 under the Biden administration. According to the latest Treasury Department numbers, $56.215 billion in customs duties and certain excise taxes have been collected, or $283.91 if broken out per day. An excise tax is also a type of tariff.

The U.S. has collected approximately $3.076 billion in customs and certain excise taxes so far this month, coming out to about $180.94 million per day, according to the Treasury Department’s data.

Economists suggest that Trump’s number is likely based on the value of imported goods from fiscal year 2024, disregarding the impact higher tariffs will have on supply and demand.

“It’s almost certainly the case we’re collecting less than that," said Robert Johnson, an associate professor of economics at the University of Notre Dame, of Trump's $2 billion per day figure.

The U.S. took in about $3.3 trillion worth of goods in fiscal year 2024, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. Applying the average tariff rate Trump announced on April 2 — 20% — to that figure comes out to $660 billion worth of revenue. That’s roughly $1.8 billion per day.

But, economists note, this calculation does not account for behavioral changes. For example, if tariffs increase and make a product less profitable, importers may cease importing it altogether. And if consumers face higher prices due to increased tariffs, they may choose not to buy certain items.

“That’s the most optimistic scenario, because that won’t happen,” said Felix Tintelnot, an associate professor of economics at Duke University, of Trump’s $2 billion figure. “You can’t do a calculation of expected tariff revenue off past trade flows and then multiply with it a currently applied tariff and expect that the past trade flow remains the same.”

Ryan Monarch, an assistant professor of economics at Syracuse University, agreed, noting, “it’s a very bad assumption to assume that purchases are just completely unchanged.”

Not to mention, it is U.S. importers — American companies — that pay tariffs, not foreign governments. That money goes to the U.S. Treasury and those companies, in turn, typically pass their higher costs on to their customers in the form of higher prices.

Still, tariffs can hurt foreign countries by making their products pricier and harder to sell abroad. Foreign companies might have to cut prices — and sacrifice profits — to offset the tariffs and try to maintain their market share in the U.S.

This story was first published April 18, 2025. It was updated on April 21, 2025, to correct that the U.S. would take in $660 billion from imported goods, not $660 trillion.
