USA Women's World Cup
USA USA USA USA USA!!! This month was a phenomenal one for the USA Women's National Soccer team. They hadn't one the World Cup since 1999 and they were very hungry to get the victory against Japan, (with whom they previously lost in the finals in 2011). They wanted to come out and redeem themselves against a good opponent. In 2011, the US lost to Japan in penalty kicks in the Finals. This time it wasn't so. In the first fifteen minutes alone the US Women scored three times all coming from Carli Lloyd. It was the first hat trick in a women's soccer final. I would have never expected that the game would start like that. All of the team contributed in different ways, even if it wasn't necessarily scoring. This is a team, in my opinion, that I felt had a lot more confidence in themselves than the last cup. They all came together and were determined to win. They ended up winning 5 to 2. I am so happy and proud to be an American. I have to commend Hope So...
