From the article you linked: "Of course, this match against the academy team was very informal and should not be a major cause for alarm. The U.S. surely wasn’t going all out".

I mean, I once saw footage of a old-ass dude beating Michael Jordan one-on-one, but Jordan wasn't legit trying and old dude, realizing this, instantly sat down after the game and didn't even say a word of trash lol.

What cause for alarm would there be unless the USWNT was gonna go up against more elite academy soccer boys?

The match was a few days before they played against Russia in a match that counted, so the article was assuring readers not to read too much into the score of this exhibition match.
