The U.S. women’s soccer team took another upset on Monday morning, losing to Canada for the first time since 2001 and getting knocked from gold medal contention.

The women’s team, ranked number one in the world and expected to take home the gold, lost 1-0 in the semifinal contest.

The single goal was scored by Canada’s Jessie Fleming late in the second half, a penalty kick that sneaked by backup goalkeeper Adrianna Franch.

“Carli Lloyd — one of several legendary American players on the Olympic roster this year — crouched on the field, holding her head in her hands when the final whistle blew Monday,” The Washington Post detailed. Team USA now has no chance at gold, a feeling Lloyd no doubt was reflecting on.

Maybe they should have practiced goal kicks instead of kneeling.

Or maybe they should have had young talent instead of menopausal lesbians.

Yeap, a lot of missed shots and this seems to be the lowest scoring team in a long time. Wasnt but a few years ago they were coitized for celebrating after scoring too much on teams.

This kind of karma tends to happen when you despise the country you are playing for.

But she has virtue signaling purple hair and should feel better about it.

Who is that homely fuchsia-haired boy in the picture, and what does he have to do with birthing-persons' soccer?

Considering the kind of shrill bitch Rapahoe is, it is schadenfreudelicious to see her fail on a world stage.

Especially after having to watch her succeed on it for so long.

That is what you get when you start focusing on things beyond the subject at hand.

Politics aside, this is what happens when the "old guard" refuses to move aside.

The core of this year's team is in their LATE 30's. The same thing happened in the 2007 World Cup when the bulk of the team was composed of those who won the title 8 years prior.

The core of this team has been on it since 2010. Their soccer biological clocks have struck midnight.

Asking for a “friend” - if you take a knee during Sweden’s National anthem, can you still sh*t on America?

Maybe Rapahoe's stupid antics were a sort of a deviant twisted way to extend her career. And, I guess, here's what it ultimately gets.
