Women’s World Cup 2019

This team has brought politics into where it doesn’t belong. Makes it a little hard to be happy they won.

LOL Rapinoe should not be on the field. Seriously she is not of the quality the rest of the team. Do you know much about soccer? Even the political correct 1/2 time show was talking about subs. It’s was Rapinoe they were talking about.

DP. Can you explain further? Perhaps I don’t understand soccer very well, but I’m having a hard time understanding how she said not as good as the rest when she saw one of their leading scorers.

Please if you think Rapinio should be on that field you know nothing about soccer. She is a liability out there and the team had to cover for her. She scored because of the teams around her. Again how did she score the goals? Did she create chances? No. Any time the ball went to her and she was pressured it was a turn over. Press is better. Dunn is better. Seriously talk to a few people who know soccer. You obviously know nothing about soccer.

That is why I asked you to explain it to me. I’m happy to hear the reasons behind your opinion if you care to share them.

She can not take player on 1v1, she turns the ball over when pressured(over 8 turn overs in this game in the final 1/3), she has no pace, she is lazy(does not track back or win the ball), she is out of position, her first touch is bad, the other field players must adjust to cover for her because she is out of position, only one defender is sent when she has the ball, her passes are off in terms of weight, touch and timing, etc. etc. She should not be on the field. Oh but she scored 6 goals( 3 penalty kicks, one lucky free kick). She should not be on the field.

And she scored 6 goals and 3 assists, set up 3 scoring chances in the final, vindicating the coach’s choice that she should be on the field. Your stupidity and bias don’t hold up against her contributions towards winning this World Cup. She was clutch, sorry. Cry about it, go yell it out in public through a megaphone. But she’s a back to back world champion.

LOL. My 12 year old DD and friends said pretty much the same as the pp. They were very disappointed to see her bad play receive awards. I guess you think the place kicker on the Patriots is the reason they win super bowl?

Lol. My 3 yo agrees. She’s younger so obviously the expert here. I guess you think any of this matters?

Normal, rational, polite people: "Good luck in the Gold Cup final, guys. We're rooting for you!"

Megan Rapinoe: "F**k you for stealing our limelight."

I will consider your pov when FIFA pays winning women the same as the loser men.

Yes, that PP is laughable.

When a 12 year old can see that her play has declined we all can.

Lets stop acting like she was dominant in this World Cup. She is an aging veteran on a stacked team and this was her swan song, but it was her swan song. Loyd had a big finals against Japan too and well, she is now a sub.

I feel like the lesson here to your DD has been lost.

Agreed. And as a PP I’ll post my bit again...

I’m so proud of the women. Say what you will about individual players, this is another incredible accomplishment. There are many polarizing athletes but as a woman and former player I hope we can rcelebrate the better aspects of what this means for girls moving forward.

Of course her play has declined. I doubt anyone would disagree with you if they said Press needs to be the starter next time. Heath’s time might be up too. But in the present, 6 goals and 3 assists speak for themselves.

Yes, it is so hard to support equal rights. Yuk.

I thought Dunn was phenomenal the entire tournament. She faced a number of top attacking players and shut them down and was also excellent going forward. Rose Lavalle was excellent in the knock out stages. With all the attention on Morgan and Rapinoe, they were the unsung heroes. Ertz and Mewis has a very good tournament too.

I meant to say Rose Lavelle.

Not trying to stir the pot but when you looked at the full stadium you have to wonder if the WC can be financially as successful w/o the US.

Her play has declined since her peak =/= she doesn’t belong on the team.

It means nothing moving forward.

US Soccer still needs to be sued for equal pay. People are more than happy with the way they played so zero evolution of the game form a player selection or development standpoint.

No new king on the hill to knock off making things interesting. It might as well be another Patriots Super Bowl win for as interesting as it is and its ability to truly advance the interest in the women's game internationally.

Just as NWSL sees an attendance bump in the World Cup after the Women's team wins so would European nations.

If you want the game to advance on the women's side an all European Finals would have done that. Yes, the stadium would have been full if the US was not in the finals. What an arrogant assumption.

Rapinoe and Morgan were not being doubled. Morgan was seeing lots of elbows and was rendered pretty ineffective. Take away the game against Thailand and she was a bust.

Rapinoe, bless her heart, worked hard but she is done. No team was afraid of her.

Lavelle and Dunn played great.
