FIFA World Cup (Women's)

If you were left feeling hung out to dry as a soccer fan after watching the United States complete a nil-nil draw against Sweden, you were not alone. This game had almost everything going for it: the #2 ranked team in the world against the #5 ranked team in the world, legendary players on both sides, an absolute smattering of attacking talent across the U.S. team sheet, and a head coach dropping some cold hard truth about her former players in the lead up to the match. The logs were gathered, the kindling was flaming, and all we got was…smoke.  

"Not at all. I'm not that smart.”

That was ex-USWNT head coach Pia Sundhage’s response to whether or not she engages in mind games. It is hard to believe at first. 

Sundhage was just featured in a New York Times article that was supposed to be nothing more than a profile of her, a Swedish sporting legend. Instead, it turned into the talking point of the young 2015 World Cup.

Mexico failed to make it out of the group stage at the last World Cup. Can they make it further this time?

Morgan’s well-being is crucial to USA's success, while a former coach could scupper hopes.

Apparently there's a lady Zlatan, Kosovare Asllani, and she's going to play against the U.S. in the World Cup.
