Still not in love with Holiday but if this is the system we're going to play (and why wouldn't it be after what we saw vs. Germany) she has to be in the lineup. There's nobody else to put there. Only question mark would be Heath who has not impressed. But the other options aren't particularly good. Yes, O'Hara scored a nice goal last time out but in this formation are we really comfortable with her essentially playing as a forward for 90 minutes? O'Reilly could have been an option but no way she starts the final after playing 10 minutes the whole tournament. So it's the same 11 as vs. Germany. If it ain't broke...
