Honduras snatched Concacaf’s final spot at the Olympics away from the USMNT in March. Four months later, Los Catrachos did the USMNT proud by dominating a game against Romania and still finding an incredible way to lose 1-0. I’m sure that USMNT players are punching the air while watching the Honduras vs Romania highlights.
Let me remind you why the USMNT isn’t at the Olympics.
Megan Rapinoe was quite blunt on the USWNT’s 3-0 loss to Sweden; they got their asses kicked. The forward also added a term I don’t think I’ve ever heard from an athlete before, the team “got bopped.” What does it mean to get bopped? Let’s consult the internet.

La leyenda de Brasil, el histórico y siempre recordado Ronaldinho ha estado disfrutando su vida luego de su retiro en el fútbol profesional. De hecho, es común verlo en distintas fiestas alrededor del mundo, mostrando su única y peculiar sonrisa.
Cristiano Ronaldo is a man brimming with confidence in just about every aspect of life. Think to yourself, have you ever seen Ronaldo uncomfortable or awkward? Sure, we’ve seen him pissed about ghost goals, throwing his armband and other fits, but I’ve never seen him out of his comfort zone.
Soccer is a sport that is very different from others, it's rare to find another sport where the feet are the most fundamental role and where the talent has to be from that part of the body.
