No gold for USA's women's soccer at this Olympics. After winning only 1 of 5 games in regulation and scoring in only two games, the aging USA team will have to settle for a chance at Bronze. Quite a let down for the team & their fans... P.S. - They will play Australia, who held USA to a scoreless tie in the 3rd game of the Olympics... Not to pick on Megan Rapinoe, but her quote on the loss is just silly... "It's a bitter one to swallow. Obviously, we never want to lose to Canada. I don't think I've ever lost to Canada." Well, Megan, I don't think you can say you never lost to Canada. You just did...

Maybe if they focused more on being soccer warriors instead of social justice warriors they would have had a better outcome.

Well, Megan, I don't think you can say you never lost to Canada. You just did... Well still better than they did last Olympics. And they were going against history. I don't believe any Women's team has won the World Cup and Olympics in succession.
