When heavyweights collide, the impact is always colossal.

First, there's the anticipation, and for feverish excitement, no match at this Women's World Cup has yet to compare to Friday's quarterfinal clash between the US and France.

There is a reason why ticket prices have gone in the same direction as the mercury during this week's European heat wave.

This is the world's top-ranked team going head-to-head against the fourth best team in the world. The defending champion versus the host. An irresistible attack against an uncompromising defense. It is "Le Grand Match." It is a match that is helping propel women's football even further into the sporting mainstream.

Guess the Megan Rapinoe haters are gonna have to change their diapers. Nice goal. Good possession and outlet pass by Morgan to break the pressure and find Heath running clear on the flank. Great cross by Heath. Didn’t catch who was the U.S. player making the run down the middle, but great judgement and positional awareness to lay off and let the ball through to Rapinoe with the trailing run on the opposite flank.

She clearly hates us, or anybody who believes in MAGA.

Offside call on Alex Morgan kept USA from being credited with third goal! Oh well.

So, you bow at the alter of an Anti-American, narcissistic hag?

A vile, SJW Trump hater?

Obviously you believe in loving your enemy...
