Video: Kristine Lilly saves USWNT in 1999 World Cup

Brandi Chastain will forever be remembered as the hero of the 1999 Women's World Cup final, and rightfully so — she kept her composure and scored the winning goal for the US in its penalty shootout against China. But without Kristine Lilly, Chastain might have never had her moment. In the 100th minute of extra time, China had its best scoring opportunity. (FOX Sports)
