[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to watch a ton of USWNT before the lawsuit, including a bunch of games in person, but have stayed away for awhile due to their actions on pay.

[b]I have to admit, I have rolled my eyes at some of the comments on this forum on how overrated they are, that they would lose to club teams, etc. [/b]

I watched the Nigeria friendly, and while I know many stars didn’t play, holy crap, many of them just looked straight up awful. The first half was maybe as poor as I have ever seen that team play. Both physically and skill-wise, it was pretty abysmal. I started counting the number of passes that were significantly behind a player or went straight out of bounds, some with no pressure on the passer at all, and gave up.

Maybe it was because I have been watching Euro20 games for six days straight, but I was pretty astonished.  [/quote]

The clubs teams in Europe are better. It is worth watching the big games, most of which are online. The core of the USWNT(Mewis, Lavelle and dahlkemper) played for Man City. Tobin Heath and Christen Press played for Man U. Watching those players in the game gives you a sense for speed, athleticism, physicality, skill and speed of play. The women’s soccer is better there. They play a game that is much closer to men’s game you see on tv. It is actually very entertaining to watch. Most fans of the USWNT are not soccer fans.
