EXPECTED OWN GOALS: Olympics Recap -- The USWNT Struggles but Moves On to the Semifinals
04 Aug 2024
It was brutal, but perhaps it was necessary. The USWNT scraped past Japan in the Olympics quarterfinals thanks to an extra-time wonder strike from Trinity Rodman, setting up a semifinal rematch with Germany. Were the players just too tired? Is Emma Hayes's focus on chemistry over fresh legs about to blow up in her face? Was the Japanese defense just too good for the US? Thankfully, the US's defense was even better. Eric and Evan get into all of it and preview the semifinal via Germany's penalty-shootout win against Canada!Sign up for our Patreon and get all of our bonus episodes and more for only $6/month!
