MANAUS, Brazil -- Carli Lloyd is in her element.Known for making the most of big moments, the FIFA Womens World Player of the Year has picked up right where she left off when she scored a hat trick in the World Cup final last summer.Lloyd has scored a goal in each of the U.S. teams first two matches to open the Olympics, helping the Americans advance to the quarterfinals. Theyll play one more opening stage match on Tuesday against Colombia for position heading into the knockout round.I havent had a ton of chances in these games, but the chances I have had, Ive been ready, Lloyd said. Ive spent the last four years in front of the net just hammering away and shooting. And just kind of becoming a sniper in front goal.The United States, ranked No. 1 in the world, is vying for its fourth straight gold medal and fifth overall in the six Olympics since the womens game was added to the Games. The only other team to win gold was Norway in 2000 in Sydney.The Rio Games is Lloyds third Olympics. The first two helped establish her clutch reputation.At Beijing in 2008, she scored in overtime for a 1-0 victory against Brazil in the final.She was benched before the 2012 London Games by then-coach Pia Sundhage, who liked the combination of Shannon Boxx and Lauren Holiday in the central midfielder position. The demotion didnt last long, however, because Boxx was injured in the opener.Lloyd started the rest of the way and scored both goals in the gold-medal match against Japan.Shes the only player to score winning goals in consecutive Olympic finals. With two goals in Brazil, shes also the only American player to score multiple goals in three Olympics.Lloyd has eight career Olympic goals, second among Americans to Abby Wambach, who collected 10 before her retirement last year. Overall, Lloyd has 90 career goals.Of course, Lloyd is best known for the World Cup final last year in Canada when she scored three goals in the first 16 minutes of the final against Japan. The United States won the game 5-2 for its third overall World Cup title.She has been able to find success in the big international tournaments because of her renowned focus and playmaking ability, but also because of her conditioning -- when other players are fatigued after the grind of several matches in a short period of time, Lloyd is still fresh.Lloyd was sidelined for some 10 weeks earlier this year after she sprained her right knee in late April during a match for her club team, the Houston Dash.But she has looked in peak condition in Brazil. She scored within the first nine minutes in a 2-0 victory over New Zealand in the opener, and then scored the lone goal in a 1-0 victory over third-ranked France.True to form, Lloyd was already looking ahead shortly after the win against France.The thing about this tournament is you cant dwell on anything too long, she said. Youve got to move on and focus on whats next.The matches Tuesday in Manaus, in the countrys Amazon region, are already sold out. The other is between host Brazil -- with superstar Marta -- and South Africa. Brazil has also advanced already to the quarterfinals, along with Canada.Colombia has already been eliminated. On Monday, coach Fabian Taborda said one of the teams top players, Catalina Usme, had an injured left knee. Lady Andrade and Carolina Arias are suffering exhaustion.Theres no way to know if Tabordas comments were simply gamesmanship.In the other matches on Tuesday: Australia plays Zimbabwe and New Zealand plays France in Salvador. Second-ranked Germany plays Canada and China plays Sweden in Brasilia. The Olympic tournament is being held in stadiums across the country. Vans Old Skool Wholesale . In taking its goal tally to 99 in all competitions already this season, City delivered another demonstration of its lethal firepower at Etihad Stadium to set up a fourth-round match at home to another second-tier team -- Watford. Vans Old Skool Shoes Sale Uk . Pettersen, winner of last years Evian Championships, had nine birdies and three bogeys, holding off a series of challengers led by Marion Ricordeau of France. The second-ranked Norwegian made her season debut after missing the LPGA Tours opening event last month in the Bahamas because of a shoulder injury. http://www.cheapoldskooluk.com/ . After the whistle, Thornton skated the length of the ice, pulled Orpik to the ice from behind and punched him in the face several times. Vans Old Skool Clearance . Bryzgalov stopped 25 shots on Saturday in the Oklahoma City Barons 4-1 victory over the Abbotsford Heat. The Oilers signed Bryzgalov to a one-year $2 million contract last Friday after shedding payroll by dealing defenceman Ladislav Smid to the Flames. Vans Clearance Outlet Uk . What general manager Dave Nonis called "short and productive" negotiations ended with Kessel signing a US$64-million, eight-year contract on Tuesday. Dean Blandino, the NFLs vice president of officiating, said the league is looking at the possibility of making more officials full-time.This is definitely something weve discussed in the past, Blandino said on NFL Network. We definitely are going to continue to explore ways to have more full-time opportunities for our officials.The referees are critical in this area because they communicate with our crews, theyre crew leaders, and so were looking at potentially a way to make some of our referees full-time or have more opportunities to work with them. So thats something that well continue to look at, and it will be on the agenda during the offseason.Blandino was respponding to comments made to NBC Sports Radio on Tuesday by Saints coach Sean Payton, who said it is madness that the NFL doesnt employ full-time officials.dddddddddddd.Recent estimates put the number of referees with other jobs at more than 90 percent, and even the most well-known refs make their livings at other professions. Ed Hochuli is an attorney in Arizona. Walt Coleman operates a family dairy in Little Rock, Arkansas. Gene Steratore is also a college basketball referee, and he operates a supply company in Washington, Pennsylvania. ' ' '
