Tonight’s Top Quotes:
- “Two things: Rose Lavelle, for sure, she came on and made an impact – she’s just a very creative player, good on the dribble. But the biggest takeaway was Lindsey Horan got pissed off. And sometimes, you just need that fight in you, that heart, guts. That’s what ultimately wins you championships and wins you World Cups. Tactical aside, technical aside, they’ve got to have more fight and more guts.”

- “Very, very different second half for the U.S. and Vlatko Andonovoski. We judge coaches on the decisions they make and the changes that they make. They made the right ones, ultimately this team came out and not only tactically was better, but just the way they approached the game – especially physically. So, they got punched in the face in the first half and they didn’t do anything about it. They took it to halftime, and they did something about it in the second half.”
- FOX Sports analyst Alexi Lalas on USWNT’s second-half performance vs. Netherlands | WATCH
- “Me and Dan [Daniëlle van de Donk] always go up against each other and it’s a physical battle – I respect her so much because that’s how it should be, it should be competitive at all times. Once we got to that tackle, all I wanted to do was score. Heat of the moment I got a little pissed at her, but Rose put it in an absolute dime and I got on the end of it and yeah – happy for the goal.”
- USWNT captain Lindsey Horan talks lead up to goal with FOX Sports insider Jenny Taft | WATCH
- “Coming back from being a goal down is huge, especially in this tournament, and I just think that speaks volumes about the players and the energy we can bring in. The game changers that came in – I thought Rose elevated it when she came in as well. But that’s what this tournament is about: you roll up your sleeves, you find your grit and then you find your goals. I’m a little disappointed we didn’t find more than just one but Netherlands is a good team.”
- Julie Ertz shares thoughts on USWNT’s feelings following draw with FOX Sports Insider Jenny Taft | WATCH
- “I’ve got a lot of respect for Trinity Rodman, first, for even talking to us about her father. It’s kind of a drag to constantly have to answer questions about that. But especially by her own admission, because he had limited influence in her life, but she does it with an incredible class and patience. And there is a whole generation that is going to see Trinity Rodman here at this World Cup that does not know nor care about her father, Dennis Rodman, and as she said in the piece, her, it’s not a challenge, her opportunity is to use the power of this World Cup, so that when people say the name Rodman at the end of this World Cup tournament, they are thinking of only one Rodman and that is Trinity.”
