The U.S. team has depth, but today's starting lineup also was a reminder of why Tobin Heath and Megan Rapinoe are special players. Neither played today, and it showed. Having them both out there together is awesome. Ali Krieger helped her cause. Sam Mewes has earned more playing time as well; her absence today was noticeable. The team that played today was not nearly as sharp as the team that played Thailand, even adjusting for the strength of the opponent.
Excellent post sphinx. :)
German Bild has a story that even the American B Team has a victory because there were many changes to the line-up.
Btw I was surprised Germany coach is married to a man.
Sometimes you really can’t go by looks.
