How these fearless World Cup champions put 'The U' in the USWNT

LYON, France — There is going to be a “30 for 30” made one day about the 2019 United States women’s national team, although they might just be fine replaying either of the ones made about the University of Miami football teams, or any other in-your-face, rub-some-the-wrong-way, fearless packs of champions.

This was a World Cup where the Americans won the title while also focusing on the fight for equality for female athletes, particularly around the world where investment and respect lag considerably behind U.S. standards.

Yet their greatest impact on society may come from their brashness, their ferociousness and their absolute enjoyment in rattling societal norms of how women are supposed to play and how they are supposed to speak.

There’s probably never been a women’s team like it, certainly not with this big of a following.

This wasn’t a “you go, girl” kind of team. It was more “listen up, we’ve got something to say right after we completely annihilate our opponent” team.

It was most certainly a message to everyone else. And based on how many teams looked terrified during the first 15 minutes of their game against the Americans (the U.S. scored early in six of them), it likely worked.

A friend asked his Brit son in law if he was upset that the US girls beat them. He said "hell no, they are the best in the world and we gave them a good run. Besides, in Britain not many women play soccer, its a mans game."
