EDMONTON — The United States remained on a strange and confounding path in this Women's World Cup on Monday, adding a missed penalty kick by the greatest scorer in international football history to a long list of shortcomings.

President Luis Guillermo Solís said he would meet with leaders from Intel in Palo Alto, California, during his first trip to the United States since taking office in May. The trip starts June 9.

U.S. coach Juergen Klinsmann: "The clock is ticking."
