There is plenty to dissect as the USWNT contemplates necessary changes for 2027 and beyond.
Anyone who’s played or coached soccer at a high level understands the “cruel” nature of requiring PKs, and several players and coach Vlatko Andonovski invoked that word after the USWNT’s earliest exit in more than three decades of World Cup play.
It’s easy to forget now that the Americans didn’t get back to the podium again until 2015, with Germany copping back-to-back titles in 2003 and ’07 and Japan upending the U.S. in penalties in the 2011 finals. The 34-year-old Morgan — the fifth-leading goal-scorer in U.S. history with 121 — didn’t add to that total in a four-start personal shutout. And the 38-year-old Rapinoe played sparingly and mostly ineffectually in three appearances off the bench.
