The victory places the Americans in second place with an 8-1 card, and two points ahead of Russia in the rankings. China remain in control of the top spot with an unblemished 9-0 record.
The main event at Site B’s Edion Arena started with neither team taking a definitive lead. USA and their resident scorers Andrea Drews and Kelsey Robinson were matched by Russia’s Nataliya Goncharova and Irina Voronkova. Backcourt defence spelled the difference for the European side at the end of the first set.
