The USWNT, unfortunately, exited the Women’s World Cup in the round of 16 after a 0-0 draw in extra time and a 5-4 loss on penalties to Sweden. President Joe Biden wrote a heartfelt message to the team, showing his support and appreciation for their efforts during the tournament.
Biden took to his official Twitter account to congratulate the USWNT. He told the team that they have made the whole of the country proud. Biden also congratulated them on a run that he has described as ‘wonderful.’
He said, “I’m looking forward to seeing how you continue to inspire Americans with your grit and determination – on and off the field.”
President Biden praised the USWNT, calling them a special team. He looks forward to their inspiring influence on Americans both on and off the field, believing they can foster a football culture in the next generation. Despite some players not singing the national anthem, Biden continues to support the team wholeheartedly.
President Biden’s pride in the USWNT remains evident. However, it is worth noting that this squad has faced an unprecedented early exit from the Women’s World Cup, marking the first time in their history that they have not advanced to the semifinals. Despite this setback, the team is now determined to shift their focus towards preparing for the Paris 2024 Olympics, where they aim to compete and strive for a coveted gold medal.
USWNT’s Alex Morgan opens up after unexpected loss ends World Cup campaign
Alex Morgan was heartbroken after USWNT lost out to Sweden in the round of 16 of the World Cup. The player has now spoken up about their surprising loss. Morgan started the game for the USWNT but was substituted in extra time for Megan Rapinoe.
Morgan said the whole experience of the loss felt like a bad dream. “It’s a really tough moment. This team was a really special team.” Morgan believes that the American team dominated but could not shut out the game.
The USWNT’s performance in this World Cup might not have been as dominant as in previous tournaments. They faced a tough challenge surviving the group stages and came close to being eliminated by Portugal, who hit the post with a great chance to score. Despite these struggles, the team’s young core of talented players holds immense potential for the future.
