The United States women's soccer team was just trounced by Sweden at the Olympics — and forward Megan Rapinoe is acknowledging, "We got our asses kicked."

The loss came after Sweden previously defeated the U.S. in the quarterfinals at the Rio de Janeiro Games in 2016.
"We got our asses kicked, didn't we?" Rapinoe said after the game, per The New York Times. "I thought we were a little tight, a little nervous, just doing dumb stuff."
Rapinoe also told The Associated Press, "Did we expect this result tonight? No. It's frustrating, and it's frustrating that it's Sweden. They found a lot of space on us. I don't even know how many goals we have given up this whole year. I don't remember the last time we gave up a goal. So to give up three is not great."
This ended the U.S. women's soccer team's 44-game unbeaten streak, The Washington Post notes. It was the team's first defeat since a loss to France in January 2019, as well as the first under coach Vlatko Andonovski, The New York Times reports.

Losers gonna lose.
i like that.
woke choke.
they do not represent me.
there are so many events to schedule that the opening ceremonies may be after certain events...
the US beating Sweden was one of those less attended events.
I thought we were a little tight,...
You lib girls haven’t been tight for decades:-)
I have no interest what yeast breath rappinHo has to say
In these rough times, it’s always a treat when, for a change, we hear some good news.
I hope they don’t even make it to the Olympics.
More proof that God has a sense of humor and He’s on our side.
Who give a crap about a bunch of woke, leftist lesbians? They can all fall of the face of the earth.
You lost because you’re a bunch of America-hating lezz. You deserved to have your azzes kicked, which incidentally I hope to never see up close.
“Did Sweden have some of those women-by-choice players? LOL”
Could be. Saw 4-5 in the line up that could pass for males.
When do they mess with axes?
I’m not rooting against the USA...I’m rooting for anyone playing against these America-hating ingrates.
Oh how the mighty fall.
GO SWEDEN!!!
Indeed. Carpet munching purple haired America hating skank.
Now maybe we’ll have heard the last of her.

You're right. The Sweden team photo has a couple that look about high on the testosterone thing. LOL
