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.

The coach of the French team is pretty impressive, she coached a Mens’ team in the French second division before taking the Womens’ job.

I’d prefer the two USA-haters Rapinoe and Kreiger tear hamstrings.. then I’ll cheer for the USA team.

Has the French team vowed not to visit the Palais de l’Élysée if they win?

Probably no other country in the world but the USA cultivates such a humongous crop of talented women players. It starts in elementary school, then middle school, then …
The USA is the country that gives us the word "soccer mom". Youth soccer programs are unimaginably ubiquitous in the USA. It's truly YUGE.

Who allowed the small boy on the women’s team?
To: Governor Dinwiddie
It begs the question, why can’t we do the same for the men’s team?
It costs an arm and a leg for a boy to get into a soccer academy to play a game that poor kids in Brazil can play in the streets.

Get real.
Nobody cares about soccer, and even fewer about wimyn’s soccer. (sic)
Soccer is not even a sport.
