I don't know what the hell a real american is, but you all are not citizens of the occupied land, you're consumers. citizens : country :: consumers : business venture
“When players think it’s more about them then the country they represent..” now I will quote Donald trump.
4 of the top 10 Women's soccer did not make it out of their group stage: Canada...defending Olympic champions United States...two time world champions Germany...former two time world champions Brazil...ranked 8th and as high as 2nd If you're a true fan of Women's soccer in the world...you would already knew the above 4 teams were in trouble prior to the world cup and in trouble based on their draws in the early stages. The rest of the world has been playing much better in the recent few years with more recognizable rising young stars while other teams were too dependent upon older stars to carry the weight. My last remaining favorite in France after my other favorites (Canada and the United States) loss. The big difference that most can not appreciate in the United States...FIFA women's soccer now has more similar pay and access to similar facilities as FIFA men's soccer. The women had to put the United States in an uncomfortable position to make women's and men's soccer more equal. In fact, U.S. women's had to take it to court...they won too and it set the stage for many countries to do the same. It's now paying dividends for those other countries too. Women's soccer in Europe gained a £600 million dollars in funding...much more than the U.S. women's team expected. What's that saying...be careful of what you wish for. FIFA WorldCup Odds Favorites: England Spain France Japan Australia Look at the above European teams...the ones with that extra £600 million in funding. Thank You U.S. Women's Soccer !!! wrbtrader
Clearly they need to get more men on to that women's team so that they can win. I guess that is how the progressive logic of how to promote women's sports and rights works these days.
That's life especially now with other women's teams (countries) now playing better than ever before because they demand equality too. The U.S. Women's soccer team should have stayed quiet to continue its dominance...everybody now wants similar equality. Regardless, I believe the average age of the U.S. Women's soccer team is too high...it needs to come down so that they can get back to their dominating ways. Strangely, their worst FIFA performance has now occurred under the umbrella of a Male coach...equality goes both ways. He'll most likely be fired or step down...then replaced with a Female coach as the prior WorldCups that the U.S. won under the leadership of a Female coach. wrbtrader
