Rodman needs to go.

Lolololol

You need to go. Troll.

I cannot believe we can’t find a better right winger in all of the US - awful footwork, poor passing and receiving, and just missing some very basic winger football IQ. Emma Hayes (and the NT) needs to see Rodman take her role more seriously. Just sloppy.

Lindsey Horan just looks too slow for the current team. While she is great 6 in a slow technical team, it seems like she’s either lost a step, injured or is out of match shape.

Girma had some super smart recoveries to save some dumb wing coverage. I was surprised by her mistakes there. But, it’s Girma, she recovered well.

Crystal Dunn! Wow, she had a positive impact for the first time in maybe 3 years or so. Hayes is clearly setting her up in a role she can help the team. Nice to see her back in international form.

Rest of the team played pretty well - much much better overall that WC. This is a team that seems to know what they are doing. Would have liked to seen some cleaner passes, but overall solid performance.

Experts are out I see. In the first 30 mins she has 2 assists, and played the positve ball forward to Lavelle, to Smith, and then to Swanson for the third goal. In a 3-0 game that died after the 31st minute red card, I would say she was quite effetive. Shoot what do I know though...

So disgusting that the sexual abuser (Zambia’s head coach) is allowed to coach… Something is very wrong with whoever decided this.

It was against Zambia. Zambia is a really bad team. Not much you can learn from this game. The only question I have is it is the group stage and usually goal differential counts. If you have an opportunity to run up the score you do.

Anyone catch the Spain vs Japan game? All the goals were insane.

It was nice to see Mallory Swanson get some goals. I always thought she was very talented, but overshadowed by other players past their prime who just kept hanging on. I don't know if she is the answer at striker for the future, but a good comeback story and a likeable player.

Can't even play a whole half against Zambia.

Must really irk you that the black players are the only ones that score.

This is a terrible retort... inserting race into a space that didn't have a race issue. GTFO.

by this logic, Trinity Rodman had an amazing game because she scored…

I love Horan. I think she is a fantastic 6 - as I said above. But she absolutely looked slow, physically…not mentally…if you can’t just admit that she looked slow (for her) and have to dig in reflexively…why even comment or respond?

Korbin is on the bench because of politics...has nothing to do with soccer. US women's team is very unlikeable at the moment. New coach needs to get them back to soccer...less politics, less social media and a lot more soccer focus. She also needs to start wearing USA gear for games in my opinion. She is certainly free to dress how she likes but some USA gear would be strong.

You seem to be the only one injecting politics in here.
The coach should dress like a professional, not like a flag.

Horan and new coach related right?

Horan is svelte if you can’t just admit that she and have to dig in reflexively…why even comment or respond?

No we are big women soccer fans….by that I mean USWNT winning and players who are easily recognized(helps if they all would dye their hairs bright colors).
