Sam Kerr isn’t afraid to speak her mind.
We found this out after she inspired her team to a comeback win over Brazil earlier in the Women’s World Cup and told her critics what they could do.

Megan Rapinoe is not one to shy away from speaking her mind. Now “awake,” according to a recent Yahoo! Sports interview, she’s using her platform to turn herself into, in her own words, “a walking protest.”
Before the Women’s World Cup opener against Thailand began on Tuesday, Rapinoe was the only American player to not put her hand over her heart and sing the national anthem.
Lionel Messi transcends typical descriptions of an athlete.
There is just one way to properly define one of the greatest soccer players of all time — he is, simply put, a creator.
But to say Messi just creates goals would be like saying the Beatles just create music. Messi, whether playing for his club Barcelona or the Argentina national team, makes the beautiful game beautiful. He scores goals, sure, but he does so artistically. He creates goals for teammates, yes, but he generates attacks no one else can see with agility and raw skill.
Sukanya Chor Charoenying had the worst day at the office ever for a World Cup netminder. The Thailand goalkeeper saw 13 goals fly past her as the U.S. women’s national team ran rampant in their Group F Women’s World Cup opener on Tuesday.
¿La selección femenina de Estados Unidos fue demasiado lejos en su humillación récord de 13-0 sobre Tailandia el martes en la Copa Mundial Femenina?
Muchos han sugerido lo mismo, diciendo que las jugadoras estadounidenses no deberían haber celebrado marcar goles al más alto nivel de su deporte.
The U.S. women national team’s 13-0 thrashing of Thailand was nothing short of incredible. Behind Alex Morgan’s record five goals, the USWNT set the record for most goals scored in a single World Cup game.
Despite all the goals that poured in — and there were a lot — the best moments of the match for the U.S. didn’t come on the pitch, but in the stands.
One of the most well-known Mexican boxers right now, Canelo Álvarez definitely did not play soccer growing up. He's been fascinated with boxing since the age of 13, and he would go on to become a professional at 15 years of age. But is there a Canelo Alvarez favorite soccer team?
The Guadalajara-born fighter has become this generation’s Mexican star. Mexico has often done great in the world of boxing, and Álvarez is carrying the torch passed on to him by past greats of the sport.
Most athletes don’t like to expose their personal lives to the public, but the Dwyer’s expose themselves on social media quite often. The Dwyer couple is definitely #BaeGoals, and they even let us inside their lives off the pitch while they express what makes them a loving but also chaotic family, including all the sacrifices and entertainment that goes on in their household.
