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.

If they beat England on Tuesday they will be in the final on July 7.

England will be another tough game.
USA! USA! USA! USA!
“I am Lesbian Hear Me Roar!”
No. I just refuse to let my disagreement with one player’s politics override my appreciation for the U.S. team. Rapinoe got out of line when she got caught up in Kaepernicking. She got a dressing down and has dialed it back for the last couple of years. It’s time to give it a rest.
Oh, really?!?!?!?!
I agree. Although Argentina has been a little mediocre so far.
I think whoever wins the Chile-Colombia game will win the tournament.
Yes. She stands for the national anthem and keeps her mouth shut except when reporters stick microphones in her face and fan the flames. The press is driving this now, not Rapinoe. What do you expect her to do — get a tattoo of Donald Trump on her arm, or announce that she’s gone straight?
I suppose that would be a step in the right direction.
If she did get a tattoo of Trump, it wouldn’t be on her arm.:)
Bullshiite. That was her being an ass just three days ago. She’s Vile, Perverted Scum.
Well, hell no. I rather lose with with a honorable team than to win with a dishonorable player like Megan. It’s almost like having LeBron James on my basketball team. No thank you. Yes, he is supremely talented. But he’s an asshole.
Not an argument especially considering your name is associated with Wiemar degeneracy and modern day collectivism/begging the US to subsidize Germany's existence.Sure it is an argument. You are a total hypocrite.
You have to invent that crazy bs about Berlin to cover your disgusting celebration of Hollyweird on FR.
My name is a place name like you see many people use, such as California and New York. Go ahead and invent crazy bs about what their names mean to them.
Meanwhile your Hollyweird name comes from a specific movie called L.A. Confidential starring Kevin Spacey (He is a Democrat and a friend of President Bill Clinton... As well as an accused sexual predator of under-age people.) and Danny DeVito (In March 2016, DeVito endorsed democratic socialist Bernie Sanders for President.).
Every time you post you are promoting Hollyweird which is very anti-Trump.
Not only that, but the name you chose for yourself to identify with is not just from a Hollyweird move but has a creepy meaning from that movie: the film L.A. Confidential, in which a police officer creates a fictional character, Rollo Tomasi, to personify all the bad guys who think “they can get away with it".
Well. you didn't get away with it. Tagged you.
I’ll submit you as a candidate for Head-coach.
President Trump tweeted to Rapinoe to win and that is what she has been doing. He also invited Rapinoe to the White House in the same tweet to celebrate her skills whether the Team wins or loses.
And how did Rapinoe respond?
I know Trump is a big boy and can handle the insults that are thrown his way. But Megan is really talking about the millions of people who voted for Trump, and believe in what he’s trying to do.
You watched the game?
Rapinoe responded by scoring four goals in the last two winning games since then.
Rapinoe says she wants justice reform, which Trump did. She also wants LGBTQ rights which the SOCTUS gave her. I really don’t know what her problem but I don’t see how she personally insulted me.
