Emma Hayes leads USA to women's football gold in her first major tournament with the team.
Emma Hayes underlined her status as one of the best coaches in the women's game by leading the United States to Olympic football gold in her first tournament in charge.
Brazil almost snatched an equaliser early in the 10 minutes of injury time when Adriana saw her diving header clawed away by US keeper Alyssa Naeher. Hayes, who left Chelsea as their most-decorated head coach after winning 14 trophies in a sensational 12-year tenure, warned the revival would take time.
As well as offering the shot at an historic international title, Brazil's run to the final also provided an opportunity for the iconic Marta to bow out on the biggest stage.
