Great video. Special thank you to Reba for breaking down some of the technical side of the game. Would love to hear more about what players need to do or not do in order to stop certain strategies. Keep kicking ass Sammy Bananas. Your posts are always a highlight in our house.

Sam is too modest to point out & Becky probably doesn't want to put her on the spot, but the last time USNWT featured a premiere holding midfielder was the 2021 Olympics, more s specfically Sam's last game with the national squad. Our problems in midfield started with her loss & will continue until we can find a replacement who's as good.

Hello Sam and Becky. I am going to suggest a 1-1 draw. Midge Purce is my favourite current US player. She gave great post game reviews at the World Cup and is obviously intelligent on and off the field.

Before hearing Becky's talk about the XG system, I figured USA should have had 3 to 4 goals against Costa Rica. S. Smith even had the goalie out of goal but couldn't cut the angle enough. Horan unintentionally blocked a U.S. shot right at goal. Seemed like things just didn't go U.S.'s way during that game and the Costa Rica goalie practically stood on her head.

Surprised Abby was not picked. Her long passes are incredible. The US has never really been able to figure out how to break through a bunkered defense. Also, superstars in the NWSL does not make you a superstar player on the international play. We've seen that these past 2 yrs with this team.

At least Tobin admitted that she has given up with USWNT on set plays. 0-16 on corner kicks is most direct comparison with the World Cup performance.

Okay...I think USA will have sorted out Barb and she or her team mate will make it through only once in the first half. USA will be stuck in their non scoring rut for the first half with a heavier focus on defending but there'll be shots taken. Barbara will be subbed off and Lynne, Croix and JAedyn will come on and a goal will be scored by one of them. A penalty kick by USA will leave the final score 2-1.

*The USWNT was unlucky for having fallen in a group with tough teams: Zambia, Germany, and Australia. Concerning Zambia, there are no US players with the physicality of the three Zambia stars. Our players are too short and thin. I think the tallests are Tierna Davidson and Williams. We need a couple of 5'10 defenders and a middlefielder who could be Taylor Flint who is 6'1. Flint is playing great in the NWSL.*
@roxytocin8639
Ай бұрын
There are no players on the US women's Olympic team with the physicality of the three Zambia starts because the Team USA players are all presumably female, whereas the three Zambian stars are males with DSDs similar to Caster Semenya.

Zambian players Barbra Banda, Rachel Kundananji & Grace Chanda are males with DSDs. In 2022, those three & one another player on the Zambian women's national team were ruled ineligible for the Women's Africa Cup of Nations by the Confederation of African Football - the governing body for football/soccer in Africa - because they failed to meet the physical criteria for female competition. The reason these players are such standout stars in women's soccer in Zambia, internationally & in the USA's NWSL is that they all have testes which produce testosterone in the normal male range, along with male genetics & male androgen receptors that enable them to utilize & benefit from all the T they produce as males typically do.
@lisagibson-ig3wz
Ай бұрын
They have the benefit of elevated T, a male puberty and their male pelvis - which is much more efficient for running. If DSD athletes are banned in athletics, just become soccer players. American podcasters will lap it up.
