The USA capitalized on the sending off and doubled their lead in the 38th minute thanks to Alyssa Thompson.
And in the 52nd minute USA got a third goal this time off the boot of Ally Sentnor.
Up next for Ghana is a tough clash with defending champions Japan billed for Sunday, 14 August while USA will face the Netherlands.
