Trounced? What game were you watching? 
[/quote]

Looooooosers.[/quote]

We were also playing handicapped without the best player too (Megan Rapinoe). To win without that - yes, trounced. [/quote]

best player???? maybe with purple hair

this is a team.  From Naehr to Dunn to Ertz to Lavalle and Ohara and Heath and Morgan this was a great team effort.
Rapinoe is a part of that team.  Not the best part in any way.[/quote]

You must admit, that gesture was extremely offensive and deserved a red-card.[/quote]

It was a lame gesture.  Rapinoe and her make me cringe.  What is worse is that was likely not spontaneous - she had to have thought out that little celebration in advance.  Just play the game and celebrate with your teammates.

No one would have criticized a male soccer player if they had done the exact same thing.[/quote]

Really? Because I thought the NFL just lifted the rule against premeditated celebrations as unsportsmanlike just two years ago.

The criticism of the celebration is that it is a taunt and it was meant as a taunt. [/quote]

Yes, and Morgan's reply today was that the vast majority of the celebrations in the men's game are much worse, and no one makes a big deal about it. Which is 100% true. [/quote]

When you play on the big stage everything is under scrutiny. She could be under scrutiny for not having scored since the Thailand game or even worse the team could be considered irrelevant enough to not be bothered to scrutinize at all.

Being at the top doesn’t mean all praise. [/quote]

Turns out this whole thing has been a misunderstanding.

She was actually paying homage to GoT actress Sophie Turner’s Instagram feed, as anyone can plainly see.[/quote]
