Tonight’s Top Quotes:
- “What a moment. If she [Linda Caicedo] wasn’t a superstar already, she is now. What a finish. Take a bow.”
- FOX Sports match analyst Warren Barton on Colombia star Linda Caicedo’s spectacular finish vs. Germany | WATCH
- “Linda Caicedo, what a player. … I’m honestly without words … with that incredible rip, I’m gonna dream of this goal all night.”
- FOX Sports’ WOMEN’S WORLD CUP NOW analyst and former Colombian National Team star Melissa Ortiz on Colombia’s legendary goal from Linda Caicedo | WATCH
- “I think just embrace it. These are like the best moments, when your backs against the wall, when there’s a lot of chatter about, you know, everything we should have done or things shouldn’t have done. Yeah, just take that opportunity to you know, whatever way that you get motivated to get motivated, like this is what you train for, this is the best part of the World Cup. This is the part that brings something special out in your game that maybe you didn’t even know was there.”
- USWNT veteran Megan Rapinoe on her message to teammates today in an exclusive interview with USWNT Insider Jenny Taft | WATCH
- “So I would like to see Alex Morgan out. You put Lynn Williams in, ok, still got some changes here. Sophia Smith will go in the nine, Trinity Rodman go on the left, Lynn Williams on the right. Now Sophia Smith’s ability to get in behind the backline, and pop off, and go in front of the backline, provides the team with a little bit more width and a little bit of unpredictability. And I think Lynn Williams comes in, she gives that dynamic defensive presence, where she can kind of get up and down that flank and just gives the team a little bit of a different look. You know, it hasn’t all been going well this World Cup, so why not just spice it up and mix it up a little bit.”
- FOX Sports analyst Carli Lloyd makes her case for the USWNT making a change up front vs. Portugal
- “You want to play Italy rather than Sweden, it doesn’t take a genius to figure that out. So you go out there and you win this game in the first half, you put your best 11. And Vlatko Andonovski, his best 11 for the last two games, including against the Netherlands, was what it was. I think he changes Rose [Lavelle], but I don’t think you change anything else.”
- FOX Sports analyst Alexi Lalas provides a counterpoint on the USWNT holding strong with their starting lineup vs. Portugal
- “They finally showed up as a team and had a team performance. They were really good today, and all credit to them, I thought they were going out with a bang because this was really disgraceful what they showed in the first two matches, but now they’re back in the game. They needed a lot of goals, they scored them so all credit to them, but I’m still not convinced yet.”
