[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did Rapinoe make his roster? She was terrible last night, couldn’t complete a pass against an extremely weak Vietnam team. Hope that’s the last we see of her in this tournament. [/quote]

Marketing. Rapinoe is very recognizable and the face of the team/women’s soccer. She was over the hill in ‘19 - out of position, slow, not getting back on defense and a turn over machine. Rapinoe is why Dunn plays defense and not offensive. They needed someone to cover for Rapinoe. They still win.

The US has a huge pool of players and I am sure there are other players who would preform better vs the older players but few would recognize them. Let’s see what the lineup is when they play the more competitive teams. [/quote]

The ugly truth of the matter is a lot of the players of that generation, including Rapinoe, are straight up about themselves and mask their greed and selfishness in talk about "development of the women's game". They should have stepped aside for younger players a while ago.[/quote]

Yes, this is my main problem with women's soccer in America.  The game of soccer is secondary to themselves and their social justice causes.  Not just on the national team, but every women's soccer podcast and radio show.  I have to hear all about their contrived fight for equality and sexual orientation before they get down to talking about the game.  I don't watch the men play and think to myself, "I wonder how Christian Pulisic feels about the immigration issue on the border?"  Luckily, I know he won't tell me either.  Stick to the game ladies.  Once you retire then you can spout off about whatever you want if you think people will listen.[/quote]
