Meikayla Moore was substituted at half time after scoring three own goals

New Zealand defender Meikayla Moore scored three own goals and was substituted before half-time in a heavy defeat by the United States at the SheBelieves Cup.

Moore, who plays for Championship leaders Liverpool, scored twice at the wrong end in the first six minutes.

Things got worse for Moore when she poked another one past goalkeeper Erin Nayler before half-time.

Ashley Hatch and Mallory Pugh also scored for the US in the second half.

Moore's hat-trick of own goals - scored with her left foot, right foot and a header - came before she was substituted in the 40th minute and it contributed to New Zealand's second defeat at the SheBelieves Cup.

We are not on their level, they are world champions and football in NZ is very weak compared to other nations. Rugby and cricket are the main sports here. It's still unfortunate for Moore to score a hatrick of own goals so I feel for her.

an own goal is a nightmare for any player. to have it happen 3 times in a half is just heart breaking. hope she recovers and bounces back stronger.
