Team USA took the match in straight sets, winning the first game 25-19, the second 25-15 and the third 25-23.
After being unavailable for Team USA in the quarterfinals due to injury, Jordyn Poulter made her return to the court. The setter recorded 32 sets, two blocks and five digs to help make the U.S. hard to beat.
The U.S. will face Brazil in the gold-medal match on Sunday at 12:30 a.m. ET.
