Avast ye, me hearties! Cap'n Lindsey Horan, leader o' the U.S. women's soccer crew, be mighty vexed by the constant naggin' from the Yankee supporters 'bout her playin' ways. Arrr, give the lass a break, ye scallywags!
U.S. women's soccer star Lindsey Horan has reflected on the team's disappointing performance and early exit from the Women's World Cup last year. Despite winning in back-to-back seasons, the squad was eliminated in penalties against Sweden in the Round of 16 Knockout Stage. Horan, who was named captain of the team along with Alex Morgan, expressed frustration at the lack of understanding of her playing style and strategies among the fan base. She believes that American soccer fans, for the most part, lack knowledge and understanding of the game, though she acknowledges that it is improving.Horan's comments are expected to draw some outrage, but she stands by her statement that the game is growing in the U.S. and people are becoming more knowledgeable. She plays for Lyon FC in Division 1 Féminine and notes that French fans understand her game better, attributing it to France's greater interest in soccer. Horan also highlights a contrast between the style and professionalism of players in France compared to those in the National Women's Soccer League.
Despite the criticism and distractions, Horan emphasizes the importance of focusing on the game and being the best they can be. The U.S. women's national team is entering a new era with the appointment of Emma Hayes, a successful manager from England's Women's Super League. Hayes has won numerous titles at Chelsea and will lead the team moving forward.
In a humorous tone, Horan concludes by suggesting that they should "knock some of the s--- out" and prioritize the game. She believes that focusing on football is the most important thing and that the rest can be dealt with at the appropriate time.
