She is an A-cup at best. Definetly not "world" cup.

Aug 6 (Reuters) - Megan Rapinoe did not get the Women's World Cup farewell she wanted on Sunday, a penalty that sailed over the crossbar the last international play by one of the United States' most decorated players.

American soccer's charismatic figurehead was sent on as a substitute in extra time but the last-16 game against old foes Sweden ended 0-0 before the Swedes won the penalty shootout 5-4.

Rapinoe was of three American players to miss her spot-kick.

"This is the balance to the beautiful side of the game. I think it can be cruel and (it was) just not our day," Rapinoe told Fox Sports.

"I still just feel really grateful and joyful."

Renowned for her reliability as a penalty taker, Rapinoe said missing one in the final moment of her career felt like "a sick joke".

She tearfully embraced her coach on the pitch before linking up with her team mates one last time while the Sweden players celebrated to Abba's "Dancing Queen".

So this is like if LeBron James missed a tying free throw, 7th game NBA finals?

So the good thing is that nobody will miss her now.

Only a socialized society in parts of a capitalist civilization would make a hero of minor league playing sports athletes due to a political takeover of a nation from authoritarians backed by the most powerful people in the world. And from this the

Number of World Cup Titles Megan has Won: 2

Maybe if you stopped whoring for a loser, you’d know what a winner looks like.

I’m not a fan of replacing proven veterans with unproven players at top level tournaments. For all her woke shit, Rapino has been a top level player for years.

Far too often recent the Senior US soccer teams of both genders have relied on unproven youth over proven veteran players and the results have been unacceptable (see the USMNT Gold Cup results vs their Nations League victory earlier this year).

Really? I watched her play a couple of times, she looks slow and behind all the plays.
Good riddance.
