The US goalie makes a hell of an effort on the last kick.

Just thinking out loud…

Is there a trend developing where the faces of American women's sports crumble in the biggest moments?

Naomi Osaka, tennis. Mental health and myriad injuries.
Simone Biles, gymnastics. Mental health, right before the chance to cement herself as the GOAT of the competition (that she'd already proclaimed herself to be).
Megan Rapinoe. Substituted in for one job, what may be the most pressure packed situation in international sports, and scuffed it.

Rapinoe is one of the ones to miss a penalty kick and the U.S. women's team gets knocked out. Can the next batch of players please be proud to represent the U.S.
A great day for America!

All the sweeter the way they lost, including Peter Pan not only missing but missing so badly. Has to sting losing to a country about the size of California with like 1/30th of our population. Have to do a better job of putting athletes on the team whose focus is winning and not those with an agenda.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

In fairness, I've never watched a minute of soccer, men or women, before the women's team went commie or after. This is a tree falling in the forest that I wasn't going to hear one way or the other.

Just watched the highlights. Very exciting game and US had numerous SOG. They should have won. But maybe Karma had other plans.

I sick and tired of all this US hating going on. I'm making a new bumper sticker "Don't like it here, GTFO" with American flag as background.

Nothing more ironic then to use the blanket of freedom this country provides to then **** on it using this freedom and how much the US sucks. Go live in Cuba, Mexico, Russia, any Middle East country then.

I think there are a lot of us that feel the same. The problem is there are a whole load working from within to fundamentally change it and frankly they seem to be having success … with the help of certain aforementioned useful idiots.

"Nothing says AMERICA FIRST quite like the literal women's national team DESPISING the country that provided them the opportunity to be there in the first place, while actively disrespecting said country WHILE THEY WORE it's colors."

Goes for the women's Olympic basketball team, too.

To be fair, you could probably say the same about their straight women as well.

This is the equivalent of missing a layup shot in basketball.

So it's really appropriate for women's soccer.

When the game goes into shootouts, you choose your 5 best players for pentyl kicks. When it goes into extra kicks, you start using your other players. Rapinoe in the past has been a solid kicker when the game goes into a shootout.

If only the U.S. team had a transfemale on the squad, they wouldn't have lost to Sweden.

Make it a habit of being ignorant and proving it on other topics?

The funny thing- it's not equal pay. The uswnt is getting a bigger % of the pie relative to what they produce.

It's why ****ty ass rapinoe was even on this team- so she could eat her piece of pie. It certainly wasn't ability. That left her long ago.

The historical success of the uswnt is at least partially, if not entirely, due to those women being born and raised in the United States. The US has, until recently, been one of the few countries where a woman pursuing a career as a professional athlete was promoted and invested in, not told it was a crazy idea. The training opportunities were, for a long time, unique to us.

Now that many other countries are pouring resources into professional women's athletics, this edge is gone and we're left with some entitled ladies awash in leftist politics.

It was only a couple years ago when a uswnt player was bullied because of her religious values by rapinoe and her brownshirts.

It's hard for me to get into the MLS, usmnt, or uswnt because they have taken a side in our political debate. The MLS is hard left. There's a strong connection with lgbtq groups. I've even seen some antifa and commie flags at MLS games. No media person says a thing. Contrast that with a garage door pull that looked like a noose in Nascar that started an fbi investigation.

It's clear over the last few years the uswnt had flaws and were distracted. It's also clear their new money deal led to players not leaving when they should have, therefore leaving us with a talent issue.

To be fair, the uswnt has quite a few players who couldn't participate in this cup due to injury and that probably made this much more difficult than it already was. But, many other teams are also missing key players due to injury.

She couldn't even fake cry properly with authenticity.

If I had to rank my least three favorite athletes of the modern era it goes:

1. LeBron James
2. Colin Kaepernick
3. Megan Rapinoe
