20 years ago, US defeated China in the final and won the cup. One of my childhood memories. A player from Chapel Hill made the last shot in the penalty shootout. 6/10/2019 4:45:16 PM |

I think you're thinking of Mia Hamm, who played at UNC.
But she didn't make the 5th goal to beat China in '99, that was Brandi Chastain.

Swept the group! I could watch the last two games unfortunately.
Next up is Spain on Monday at noon. I won't be able to watch this one either 6/20/2019 11:11:09 PM |

Ertz and Morgan both have picked up injuries. I don't believe we would need either to get by Spain but certainly Ertz is more concerning than Morgan even though she is been in great form. I do believe we need both in the potential Quarterfinal Match with host France. 6/21/2019 8:00:51 AM |

I had a feeling you'd come in to argue about that. I'm totally fine with her comments. But you can see it on social media, people that would be interested in the WC are boycotting it because of her comments. My mom, for example. She loves U.S. soccer, but after hearing that, she's vowed not to support the team or watch another game. Sure, it's completely stupid and meaningless, but it's happening. 6/28/2019 11:37:46 AM |

Yep. Social media is always a far smaller circle than we (we being, people that use it a lot) realize. There’s always some bullshit “boycott” stemming from twitter or Facebook and there’s never any tangible impact from it.6/28/2019 1:18:23 PM |

My favorite part is when people suddenly become an expert and have very strong opinions on a sport they watch like once every couple of years.
