Correct me if I am wrong but I believe it was the first time Netherlands participated in the U17 World Cup. Not to mention Netherlands is smaller than the state of Virginia.

This and the fact that North Korea (out of ALL the countries in the world) won the WC last year should be an eye opener.

Called it when USA female team won the last senior World Cup with help from the refs (cue those two penalties against Spain).

It’s time to accept that NOW that the rest of the world decided to also promote female football the USA will NEVER win it again. If you think otherwise you’re delusional or too hardcore nationalist.

I seem to remember hearing the same thing before the last olympics and then the USWNT won gold. They may not win every time like 20 years ago but the US will stay competitive.

You have to be rich to buy that script. As in personal training since age 8 to be that good by U-15. And then hope you’re not beat out by the other rich families. Then, you can be a part of that script.

Wow. That's a BOLD prediction. Look, there are a lot of flaws with the US system. But, I think, in the US the sport options are still such that you have a ton of the high end US female athletes playing soccer. I do agree that as the traditional Euro/SA powers have woken up and have started funding women's programs, they are catching up fast. But, there still seems to be a stigma in many countries with women's sports. There a lot of issues going on now in La Liga F and funding women's programs and how the men's programs are drawing down the women's funds.

I haven't invested time into researching this, but it would be interesting to track through these countries the players that are on the U17 teams and then appearing on the senior teams. Also, how much more time are these other countries national teams training together as compared to the US teams. I think the big struggle is that you have US players are these ages coming from Club, College and Pro that are all playing their own systems with their own goals. The "US Way" as it's talked about is tough to implement when you have such limited time with these players.

What I will say though, is once you are in, unless you are complete mess, you continue to be in. That is continuing to stay on the radar, continuing to be tracked, continuing to be part of things even on the perimeter. Will be interesting to see how this moves forward.

This person you responded to is an idiot. The USWNT has been doing just fine and have been starting 3-4 of their stars per game. If you can’t see that, you are an idiot or a nationalist. 3/4 of the team starting for the USWNT in these Friendlies won’t start when push comes to shove, and many will not even make the team. These Friendlies are about trying to identify the next stars, not the current stars. Besides, most of the dominant WN teams had woman’s NT before the U.S. did. So that argument is stupid as well. Go back to commenting on why your DD didn’t make their U13 team.

Do you train to be this ignorant? USWNT has all those trophies precisely because they played against maybe 6-8 teams tops back then. Same usual suspects. Germany china sweden and little more… I’ll come here each senior tournament and remind you of how much USA stinks. I bet you’re on the SNAP brigade making videos about how you’ll rob stores because getting a job isn’t a consideration lmao

Which country won the last international competition in 2024?

[Anonymous]

Spain was arguably the best team there and got knocked out in PKs in the round of 16 also. French goalie had the game of her life.

Such is the game of soccer with 16/17 year olds!

Thanks for proving your ignorance. Olympics is NOT where the best players go. Furthermore, only 3 players over 23 y/o are permitted in the roster.

2 of USA trophies came with a tournament of only 12 teams. Do not laugh. The other 2 trophies with 24 nations involved.

Sit down. Pull Google up and research:

Who’s the current World Cup champ? Hint: it ain’t the USA.

[Anonymous]

Ok, Spain. And? They just got knocked out in PKs at the U17 level. Is their future doomed, too.

Relax.

Women’s soccer in the Olympics is the full teams. Only the men are under 23. How can you be so confident and know so little?

The Olympics? Winning the Olympics is not accomplishment. There are maybe 2-3 teams who break the top 10 in world rankings out of 12 teams because of how the qualifying works.

Do you even watch soccer?

Spain, France, Germany, Canada, Japan, Brazil, and USA are all in top 10 rankings and played in the olympics. Why are you trying so hard to push this narrative?
