0:00 - 0:20 This video is kind of a mess - It's like 3 videos in one lol
0:20 I wasn't planning on this intro. MEXICO BEAT USWNT!! 2-0! Shocking!!!
0:52 A lot of ppl were shocked at how they lost. 14 years of 16 USWNT Victories
1:09 So much young talent shining recently. This game wasn't that
1:15 Mexico was ready! They really pushed the USWNT. Mexico was being aggressive. USWNT played frantic and needed more patience
2:00 First goal was Becky's fault? Some people are saying Becky's time has passed?
2:27 2nd Mexico goal was a beauty!!!!!
2:38 USWNT will play again Sunday - making adjustments and beating a team is sometimes the best
3:01 Was not expecting this loss!!
3:24 Every single team is tough! And USWNT can lose any day!
4:03 Second part of the video! This originally was going to be a Gold Cup video but it didn't really turn into that lol
4:40 This video is going to be about two main things
5:30 Always exciting to watch THe USWNT
5:40 MIA FISHEL TORE HER ACL! VERY UPSETTING! Hate it so much!
6:10 Out for a year. No Olympics
6:35 After Mia tore her ACL Alex Morgan was called to replace her
6:50 She tweeted some eyeball emoji. Talking about the Gold Cup before it was released that Mia Fishel had torn her ACL
7:29 Some people thought was in bad taste for Alex to tweet those eyes since Mia tore her ACL and it wasn't the right time to do that.
7:48 She then deleted the tweet and tweeted a new tweet wishing Mia well
8:16 ppl were tweeting at her that they were not happy
8:36 Then Alex posted a pic about her number 7 for the Gold Cup, not her regular 13
9:02 People thought was was disrespectful as well. People thought she should stop tweeting lol
9:37 Ppl are saying Alex is being sassy cause she is trying to prove her haters wrong
10:17 First couple of games, young players were killing it!
10:42 Let's talk about the Lindsey Horan Issue. It was a month ago but I wanted to talk about it
11:06 Lindsey criticizes the American fans and the NWSL teammates
11:29 We read from a story about what Lindsey said. And then she apologized.
12:27 Lindsey plays in France. She made a point to call out American fans
13:05 Those were some WILD comments
13:22 You don't need context when you hear a comment like that. She could have switched some words around to make it sound not as rude/mean
13:56 A lot of ppl are saying she is not wrong but the wording was really really bad
14:16 Could she have said that was off the record?
14:26 She calls out the commentators. Julie Foudy doesn't always give good, correct comments? Julie was also a USWNT player
15:02 She is saying the fans need to have independent thoughts?
15:16 It turned off a lot of ppl. Some people may never be a fan of her again. Until she wins the World Cup?
15:40 A lot of ppl put their foot in their mouths. It happens
15:53 There are SOOOO many smart and Knowledgeable soccer fans. I would be upset if I was one of those ppl. I have talked to soo many really really smart fans.
16:39 She wants the USA to be Europe. She wants kids to grow up watching soccer like they do American Football. Will it be one day? Maybe
17:15 Lindsey also criticized the NWSL and their starting 11 photos saying it's not professional
17:55 if I was her friend in the NWSL I may be annoyed at Lindsey. I wonder if there was any tension?
18:44 It reminds me of when Viv and Lisa did an interview together and they said how it was not fun at all when they played with Bayern Munich. It wasn't great for their mental health. On edge
19:35 WSL was not as strict. WSL is a good middle ground?
20:00 Lindsey thrives in strict environment but not everyone will
20:19 She apologized she used bad choice of words
20:40 If she wins the Olympics ppl will forgive her
20:50 USWNT is young and hungry!
21:21 Spain qualified for OLYMPICS!
21:23 The Netherlands Vs Germany for that last spot! Who will it be??!!
I follow quite a few people who are Liga MX Femenil fans on Twitter and none of them were surprised Mexico dominated this match because they believe LMXF is just as good, if not better, a league as NWSL. They were still massively overjoyed but not surprised. USWNT fans shouldn't be that alarmed though, because they are a young team who haven't quite found the right starting XI yet and have Emma Hayes' coaching to look forward to.
I agree with this.
I have never seen the states that panicked and having everyone in the defensive box when México would go under attack. I've been following the Uswnt for about 8 years, and it was odd. There is no chemistry, and everyone still continues to play on solo mode. I feel like there's a lot of things happening behind close doors because I have also never seen an almost discouraged Morgan. Her post match interview seemed very self-aware, mature & yet discouraged and mentally exhausted like with no energy left in her to keep explaining where the team went wrong. She's a Vet who was used to being on the top all the time who is now in one of the worst eras of the NT. We'll see where this goes and where Alex ends up
1. I was not offended by Horan's comments, I thought they were spot on.
2. Im glad Spain qualified for the Olympics, they are the team to beat, Im excited to see which team will even come close. This makes me want to watch the competition even more.
3.I feel like the US approached that game against Mexico like a meaningless game that was already in the bag. They expected to win; they brought on the veterans I guess to deliver what was expected to be an easy win. Mexico showed up & showed out.
4. The newcomers are promising, but at the same time those first 2 games were against low ranked teams, I want to see the newcomers tested against a quality opponent, I cant help but feel like both Sophia Smith & Rodman have struggled against top tier teams,. perhaps with better coaching they'll excel.
I love Lindsay Horan, She's an intelligent person who is not insular like a lot of Americans. She plays outside of the USA which gives her a different perspective on the US game. I speak really generally here as the US is a huge country but the predominant feeling I get from an outsiders perspective is that Americans just can't handle any sort of criticism, let alone have a nuanced discussion about anything.
You’re right and Lindsay Horan isn’t wrong. She’s spent time in Europe, she completely see’s the difference in fans, knowledge and tactics. Instead of being offended, perhaps American fans should take it on board and learn!
Emily Fox now plays for Arsenal , so she will get the similar perspective as Lindsay , because they are getting experience of European football, the more ppl from USA that play away from NWSL can only benifit them , because the NWSL is so insular to one style of playing, in the long run it could be detrimental to the players / USWNT, as we learnt from WWC23 the rest of the world has caught up with the USA, African , Asian and South American teams can’t be dismissed as ppl used to. Hopefully after Emma Hayes gets some consistency in the USWNT they will start performing better.
You’re not smart according to Lindsey so I guess your comment makes sense.
I remember that interview with Viv and Lisa about Munich. Whether in sports or out, people do not work well if they are not allowed to enjoy themselves. Enjoying themselves can be consistent with professionalism. Your comment about the WSL being the best middle ground may be right on the mark. I do think that the NWSL is losing ground to the European Leagues in terms of which is the best.
The USWNT is in the process of transitioning so while the team is trying to get some cohesivity and bonding it’s not going to be possible for them to win every game. Mexico played well, but overall got to give the USWNT younger players time to gel together. The USWNT are lucky to have got Emma Hayes , but it will depend on how receptive the team are of Emma’s coaching style, if they listen to her USWNT future will be brighter, if the players are arrogant and obnoxious and “ think” they are in charge of the team , then there’s going to be conflict between coach and players. Emma Hayes knows her stuff and won’t take any crap from big ego players.
I agree and Thank God Emma won't put up with any crap from any big egos, because their are more then a few of them on the USWNT lol! I know Emma will not hold back on telling every player what the need to do to improve and what she exactly expects of them, which is what they all need. Also some of them are going to have to let their big egos get humbled a bit and Emma is just the one do it.
Alex Morgan did absolutely nothing wrong here. A few ppl took things out of context and others followed the train. WHICH IS WHY USA FOOTBALL FANS DONT COMPARE TO INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL FANS! WE ARE SO BEHIND IN TECHNICALITY KNOWLEDGE AND CULTURE WHEN IT COME TO THIS SPORT. FOR CRYING OUT LOUD - WE CALL IT SOCCER! STOP REPEATING WHAT ANALYSIS SAY AND retweeting TWEETS JUST BECAUSE YOU THINK IT MAKES SENSE
Whoa, that's a lot of caps.
a lot of people complaining? or just very outspoken people?...I m with Alex. I can't be the only one. She's a legend...deserves respect..is entitled to it. It would be hard to be great and then called in as a replacement. That's a hard gig for any human. Not having her number would also be hard. Its real...its what happens...and it would be hard. Cut her some slack people!!!
People are just way too sensitive now a days that's just the hard truth. I've never been a fan of Morgan, but what you are saying is absolutely true. People unfortunately move on to fast and are unpredictable. One day, they like you, and when you can no longer perform to the fullest, they boot you off and forget everything you've done in the past. It must suck and it's sad, so don't blame her for her sass.
Tbh not a huge fan either but its sad that we live in an era where heroes are disposable. I m thinking of the way we honour soccer players of the past as though theyre sacred but shred the current generation of players especially online. I reckon her sass was totally appropriate...same with Horan. Everything you do and say gets examined and twisted...may as well just speak your truth even if the hate comes. Lindsay is obsessed with the game...she can have her opinions. Theyre more valid than most.@@a12martinez23
How many days did Alex have in working with this team? I think that has to be a consideration.
Horan definitely could have articulated her words better. Shes very intense and that’s a good thing when it’s call for. She’s her own toughest critic. She’s a tough competitor excellent player but I think Emma can find a better fit midfielder, leader and a captain for this team. She should have been a more vocal and a leader in the last World Cup. Shes probably regretting that she wasn’t.
She was vocal. But it was overshadowed by Carli Lloyd’s constant criticism and shitting on the uswnt.
The European clubs by far are a level above the US both in men's and women's soccer. The NWSL are rebuilding so I think we should expect it may take time to be back where we were. I honestly don't think the new young players are as good this time around and there is only so much the seasoned players can do about that. My only issue is about the "seriousness" of the other countries approach to playing. Yes, if you want to be the best and this is your job then you better stop expecting this to be a joyride. Could you imagine if the men's team said "yea, Germany is too tough on its players, I just want to laugh and enjoy playing". Your making money, you better work your butt off and produce something. Great episode!
The young players are really good they just need time to gel and the right coach which is why Emma hates was hired
@@benadek6703 I hope your right
I was shocked to wake up this morning and find out that the USWNT lost to Mexico 0:2.
On the other side the USWNT was already qualified for the quarterfinals and may still be able to win the tournament.
The USWNT is bringing in new talents, who still need some time and should be guided by veteran players, who maybe didn't take that much seriously enough.
So sad about the ACL injury of Mia Fishel. Unfortunately we are seeing such injuries happening almost every week. Just last week one of the talented young Austrian U19 national players, who qualified for the very first time to the U20 World Cup this summer in Columbia, Linda Natter, also tore her left ACL and will now be missing that once in a lifetime experience.
Lidsey Horan's remark show the big difference between the US and European football cultures. I'm also more used to the traditional team photos, which show a more professional than a "fun" approach of the game. If you play long enough for a top European club with lots of Chmpions League matches, you definitely understand what Lindey id referring to.
Arrogance is a sin. Some players should come down from heaven and start WORKING for real.
Hello Sarah and Sara. As someone who has been told that what I comment is not always smart, I still enjoy your videos regardless.
The US result was not such a surprise, since Mexico are improving and US are rebuilding.
See Georgia Stanway videos from her starting out at Bayern. She was told off for not knowing the history and responded that she was there to make the history. This year's Champions League showed for them that you cannot rely on history.
Alan we love when you comment! Thank you for always taking the time!! They are always so insightful! Sarah and i always love learning! HAHA i love that from Stanway! Seems like nowadays they can stand up for themselves a bit more! Which is good!!!
My biggest issue with Horan is she isn't a leader. I have yet to see it since she has been given the arm band . I'm not sure who on our squad is ready to take on the role of our captain. I think possibly Girma could. Last night's game lacked leadership and direction. Yes we were already through but we never want to lose to a rival. Congrats Mexico. I know we are all saying it but May/June and the arrival of Emma Hayes can't come soon enough. It won't be an immediate fix but actually having our manager on the pitch day in and day out will be massive
Dos a cero!
I get that Americans are upset with Lindsey Horan’s interview. But they criticize the players all the time, when you do that, you should also accept criticism in return.
💯
Alex is a strong personality. Most successful people are. She's always been the kind of player to poke fun at her detractors. Never change
Horan's right about the culture. If you want to go tailgating at a Friday night high school football game, live in the USA, if you want a culture that's passionate about soccer, move to almost any other country on earth. Soccer needs history and local rivalries to thrive, the way high school or college football has. The UK is 1/3 the size of Texas with about 150 professional teams. It's rare to be more than half an hour from a pro club. Teams need to grow organically as part of the local community, you can't have that with franchises that move around. I get the impression, rightly or wrongly, that professional sport in the US is more like entertainment and controlled by the media and billionaires, soccer is changing for the worse in Europe but it's still the people's game, in local clubs their community has pride in, top down verses bottom up. You need to bring in promotion and relegation for a start and turn it into a meritocracy
Yes, totally. I wasn't bother by Horan's statement because I knew what she meant.
US is a multiple sport country - there are great rivalries in baseball, football, basketball and hockey in both college and pro levels. UK is basically 1-sport dominant. US soccer will never have that dominance - but it can grow to have greater influence. However, keep in mind the EPL - and other stablished leagues - are trying to build their fan bases in the US - much like the NBA is an international brand.
Agree.
Feel free to move at anytime!
@@stephenmaher1029 hahahaha your funny, if you can't handle different opinions leave. 😘
Going into this Gold Cup I was a bit worried because of last year but considering we won the first two games I think the USWNT are finally going the right direction and you can definitely see the progress that has already happened with Twila and Emma in charge. I think it's a really good thing they're changing the roster to see what every players strengths are and who will make the best team for the Olympics. I think that's also why the USWNT didn't do well with Vladko because he never changed anything at all and didn't give more of the younger players a chance. From the first two games it's clear the younger players like Olivia Moultrie and Jaedyn Shaw will bring their best and change the team for the better so I'm really excited for this new era of the team and to see what Emma will do come July! It was a bit disappointing we didn't win against Mexico but the team is still figuring themselves out right now and Mexico is really competitive but I do have hope that we'll get better and more cohesive as the players get used to playing with eachother.
Also, I was wondering if you heard the news about Sheffield United coach Jonathan Morgan. He's been sacked from Sheffield after he admitted to having an inappropriate relationship for 3 years with a former teenage player he coached at Leicester. He's also the same coach that was put under scrutiny for alleged bullying behavior towards Maddy Cusack. What makes me mad is that Sheffield knew of complaints about him from his previous clubs before they hired him at Sheffield but they just ignored his bad reputation. I wish they would do more to protect players and make women feel safe in football and stop hiring coaches with bad reputations.
Lindsey horan she’s playing amazing with Lyon club one of the best club in Europe
11:54 Lindsey's right. Most of us aren't smart about the game. I've been watching NFL most of my life. I know more than I want to know about that. Trying to learn and understand soccer.
Yeah I grew up watching baseball and I still know more about it than soccer!! and I have a soccer channel! LOL But yeah I gotta get better! I gotta get my rear in gear! haha
they should not lose to the 35th ranked team in the world.
Ese número 35 del mundo es muuuuuy engañoso🫡
It doesn't matter if you believe Mexico may be under ranked and the loss was waaaaaay misleading . These women are all pros playing in the very top leagues. No one ranked team should not lose to anyone outside top 10 period. The US should have apparently chosen some of the US born players that play for the national team. I thought that in the world cup too.
Horan should sit out, she is slow and does inspire the team .. Becky is 38, she is one of my fav's but it is time for new blood, Sarah Gordan runs circles around anyone that she plays against, why is she not on the team! Williams should not be on the team, she is good but not consistant, at all, never has been, might as well have the last coach coaching. The line up was a joke!!!! all in a defensive block, setting the tone that we were going to defend all game and that is exactly what we did
Loved your comments and agree with you a lot choice of words would have not sounded so harsh but I’m thinking how did her comment affect her relationship with the rest of the team. Take care of yourselves and thank you so much for sharing this video
I think they understand each other so well they get it probs. They may have been annoyed? But The next win they forgot all about it! (well most of it lol ) haha
Think the Horan haters are into USWNT for the social media and personalities rather then soccer the game.
I wouldn’t be surprised
Two things:
1. Sam Mewis simply regurgitated the commentary from Golazo Network analysts, she didn't come up with it herself. Which brings me to number...
2. Proving that Lindsey Horan is correct. Most fans simply take the commentary by the tv announcers as the standard. Although her choice of words is not ideal, it is sincere and true of most casual fans, the kind that don't follow football around the world, but rather only follow the USWNT for reasons of familiarity, a sense of misguided patriotism, or casual support for social movement.
Case in point: A. Morgan actions and comments are very unprofessional. This sort of childish behaviour is not what should expected of an icon on the most senior member of the team. The coaches knew exactly what to expect from her (like Naomi Girma), which is why they had selected younger, less experienced players. The team has a major tournament coming up in the summer,. The W Gold Cup is not a fifa sanctioned tournament. The perfect time to try new things and see new players. She should have understood that.
I didn't disagree with Lindsay Horan about the analysis being inaccurate at times.
The team has changed. They no longer dominate, as the past few years events have proven. The team dynamic is gone, they play like individuals. Sad
Horan wasn't wrong, but she learned the lesson of specificity of language counting the hard way. She shouldn't have apologized. But I think there ARE Football fans here that are smart about it, like many of yr subscribers here, we do follow the game in & out, multiple leagues, but in general it isn't pushed here as a sport. In other countries they live & breathe Football from the jump. Messi is a god in most of the world, here they're only now on that bandwagon. Here the sport is like 5th most popular on the tier of organized sport & young kids do it as an extra curricular activity in every suburb, but don't dream of it as a career, it's a thing kids do when they're kids, & thats it. As a result, Americans are not consumed by the sport. Every kid in Europe has Footballers on their bedroom walls, every kid in every lower socioeconomic neighborhood in the world has kids in the streets kicking around a football, its the ppl's sport, it's a culture, here they have Michael Jordan or Lebron James.
I'm with Horan just her choice of words where not good but as someone from another country USA do want to learn about soccer if u look at wsl or Germany leagues u would see that the ladies there are soccer knowledgeable . As for the lose I feel they are change to much players alot all the time , since the world up I knew we need the likes of Mallory Swanson that is why she needs to come soon .
Horan was spot-on. Substituting smart for knowledgeable is just word play. Ofcourse she didn't mean that US soccer fans are inherently stupid. The majority just do not understand tactics. I don't think she had anything to apologise for.
But then again I'm Dutch, and we are known for being direct to the point of being blunt or crude. And while that's not a problem in the Netherlands, for half my life I've lived abroad and have had people say to me: You are right but did you have to say it that way?... So yeah, there's that! 😏
She chose her words rightly and correctly. The problem is that most Americans don’t recognise that their own arrogance so they’ll never understand that that arrogance is holding them back. Get smarter
13:54 I think 'smart' was the right word to use. People, get over it.
The US team is goring through transition. Give the team sometimes to get together! And I’m sure Emma will surely use her knowledge and experience to help transforming this young team to get the chemistry back and be better!!!!! I trust this team! This is the team I fell in love since 2019! Love your video as always ❤
9:16 Why are they giving Alex a hard time? Alex meant no disrespect. 🤔
❤
US soccer media sucks vs European media. Listen to American commentators on a soccer match vs their Euro counterparts. Our people are blithering idiots who want to spout on and on about player personal lives while the TV cameras focus on head shots and the crowd and the coach antics. The Euro versions are very different because they assume a higher football intelligence, they are noticing movement off the ball, spacing, details about the game US talking heads ignore. And there is a lot more silence since they don't feel the need to backfill empty air with blather. I think that's what Horan has noticed, along with interactions in the streets with French fans. French female fans of football watch the club game--US female fans do not. And if Horan had said this in NL no one would have batted an eye.
USWNT use to be a beloved team…But player’s like Morgan, Rapinoe,Solo..etc.. have ruined the standard on and off the field…To put it simply the team was overrun by Douchebags …and it affected the younger players..
US is rebuilding, try be patient, and respect every opponent, yes even Mexico.
7:40 Why would that be in bad taste. I don't know what googly eyes icon means anyway.🤔
Horan reminents of the rapineu era with the same attitude us needs to dump these players to get back to winning
Their performance in the World Cup was every indication that their dominance is over. Get used to it folks because it will get worse before it gets better.
Thats how you dont get fan support for more pay ,somebody said she was intelligent where and when does she show that
yey!
Americans most smartest.
In the past it was the other teams with teenagers and aging players now it's the US with this type of rosters they do have players in their prime but are they world class?
*Lindsey wasn’t wrong. Ppl constantly criticize but the fans got a taste of that and are all on the floor crying and being dramatic about it. Grow up. Are ppl really gonna tell me this country is so focused on soccer? It’s not. You got football, you got baseball, you got basketball, soccer isn’t super big here. You know where funding money goes to in high school sports?… American football. Face it, she’s right. Y’all should’ve seen fans the first night they played the gold cup tournament on social media, the amount of fans that seemed lost was just laughable. Ppl can criticize her all they want, but that’s cause they know she’s right. And if the uswnt wins the Olympics, that won’t prove her point, and I don’t see it happening if this team can’t improve.*
And as far as Alex’s comment, get over it. She does the 👀 on social media more than y’all think. Y’all really are soft if 👀 triggers you so bad enough to call out THE Alex Morgan without a good reason. And also acting like she’s the one who tore Mia’s ACL. Like Fr?😂
I do not see how Horan said somethings wrong, fundamentaly. It is about tradition and cultures. I guess you don't have Football in your culture like most Nations have in Europe. Having said that, we are not as patriotic in Europe either. By that I mean, we do not cheer on the National team in any sport, just because it is our Nation. That is my view upon it and I can be totaly wrong. When I watched Germany play Sweden, many Years ago, in Berlin, there were not a whole bunch of people going there just because it was Sweden playing something, it was football fans, just like if it had been another sport. Does it sound remotly understandable what I try to imply?
Mexico beating US...well I am not chocked. Every Nation loses sometimes and perhaps US fans should have less expectations if they are in a Generation switch? It takes time. Every team end up with the same problem eventually.
Would you like to know what’s rude? Lindsey saying that American sports fans aren’t smart!
I think the majority of people that are okay with what Lindsey Horan said are not American and have no idea what it’s like in America. America is easily hated by other countries many times for just being America. Lindsey opened that door for people to act like they know what it’s like in America and hate on their fans when these people haven’t stepped a foot in this country. If anyone says they are okay with what she said, I can guarantee they wouldn’t be okay with it if it came from their countries captain of their team.
14:42 The commentators are very 'smart' either IMHO.
when u watch MEX VS DOM 8:0... U can see Mex is very pretty Goals from no.11 Ovalle and no.20...i think USA never learning from MEX and never read when the game ongoing ....funny ... MEX know how to goal and USA still sleeping when the second goal...
Have you seen the news about Sam Kerr..? Surprising no? I'm not sure what to think...
yeah we just saw it. Im very surprised!! someone said the body cam footage may come out? I hope so. Was not expecting this news!!
No.13 is Alex Morgan 🎉 ... Moultrie can gfh
What American fans are is sensitive. You wouldn't need to be offended by Horan's comments if you didn't think she was talking about you being not smart 😂
USWNT’ team is not that strong as before when Hope solo she was goalkeeper
Most keepers following on the heels of a legend are going to struggle. It's not that Naeher is crap, it's that she's inconsistent and doesn't measure up to Solo or Scurry. Murphy is the new #1 going forward.
USWNT rip
USWNT LIVES! haha
Twila is the problem this gold cup lets be real. I feel people are scared to say it
I get that Americans are upset with Lindsey Horan’s interview. But they criticize the players all the time, when you do that, you should also accept criticism in return.
Yeah nothing wrong with a healthy discussion! even with some harsh words at times!
