"I always say it's the worst job in the world because if you do your job, then you were supposed to, and if you do one hair less, then you are gonna get lambasted for it," Rapinoe said.

Having her do the penalty shootout was a huge fricking mistake, and I say this as someone who actually supports the foid team...

Eventually, you reach a point where you're not the worldbeaters you used to be; I think the whole 2020 Olympics-2023 WC campaign is very reflective of that (not to say of how even the most "woke" people can't excuse your attitudes by that point)...

S.m.h. Megan, you've had a great career...but now is the time for you to retire with your wife and let other folks play instead, yeah?

Actual foid footy fans knows that OLD hag should have been retired years prior but she's greedy like RBG.

IIRC they were filming probably the documentary referred to in the article at that time so I'm guessing that sorta influenced the penalty takers? I mean if she scored that penalty USA would have gone through and it would be a :chudseygenocide: but lol

Also a bit of a tangent...but I distinctively remember how they scheduled one of the Round of 16 games to be held at noon Auckland time...pretty darn early for a knockout game, no?

Well...thing is, that was for the winner of the group where the USWNT was supposed to play in...and by having it so early in kiwiland, it would've been roughly primetime for us burgers! And it made sense - after all, the US team would win easily and the fans won't have to get up so early in the morning to watch and yadda yadda.

However...one almost loss to Holland here, and another unimpressive tie to Portugal there...and ergo, America was sent to play in the late game as a result...

The whole tournament served not only a slice, but an entire humble pie... :marseygiveup:

I wouldn't be surprised if more Americans watched the USWNT than the men, since we actually win that World Cup sometimes. Plus soccer is one of the most popular sports for girls here.

Would explain why they generally don't care much for soccer if that's all the exposure they get

Lol it would be a great send off for Rapinoe scoring the winning peno at the World Cup and the chuds would be owned so I really suspect the coaching staff might have seen the cameras and thought "let's own the chuds" but failed spectacularly

If not I'm not sure why they sent her to take the PK when she performed rather poorly that match

Penalty takers are whoever is in at the end of the game.
