By Andrew Downie RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) - United States goalkeeper Hope Solo and Colombian midfielder Catalina Usme were embroiled in a battle royal when the sides met on Tuesday and while the match ended 2-2, there was only one winner in the personal duel. Playing her 201st international, Solo let Usme's 25-yard free kick squirm through her legs in the 26th minute when she should have gathered easily. Crystal Dunn got the U.S. back on level terms 15 minutes later as the world's top-ranked side gradually imposed themselves on a team 23 places below them.
