It’s the biggest game of the year, in any sport. USA-France, the match everyone circled on their calendars as soon as the draw was held, will be viewed by many as a de facto final for the Women’s World Cup, and the hype for the match is absolutely unreal, especially in France.
When was the last time Google went all out for a Women's World Cup quarterfinal?
Unlike the men’s team, the United States women’s national team is the undisputed greatest soccer team in the world. With more World Cup trophies and Olympic gold medals than any other nation combined, the USWNT is without a doubt the dominant force in women’s international soccer.
With those triumphs have come countless moments to savor: trophies lifted, victories snatched at he last minute, record-breaking performances and iconic celebrations.
These are the 18 best USWNT moments of all time.
The U.S. women’s national team is a social force. Not political — social.
After watching Jessica McDonald’s story from the USWNT 23 stories, we learned what motivates her to pursue her dream of playing professionally. Her mother had her and her brother right out of high school and struggled to give them the life they deserved, so she ended up being raised by her grandmother.
The Trump-Rapinoe feud isn’t ending anytime soon. And we’re here for it, especially that Megan Rapino Twitter account (see below) that is absolute fire and in no way related to Megan Rapinoe the USWNT co-captain.
Friday. On Friday, you don’t work. On Friday, you watch perhaps the most anticipated match in the history of the Women’s World Cup. The USA vs France World Cup 2019 predictions, previews and general hype train is building to a crescendo, like a Marta message to the children.
We’ve all seen him by now, the USWNT assistant coach.
With a broad, reassuring face and hair pulled back tight, he shadows U.S. head coach Jill Ellis on the sidelines, almost brother-like in appearance.
So who is this guy anyway? And what’s with the man-bun?
