A month and a half after the disillusionment of the World Cup, the United States returned to their public on the night of Thursday to Friday (1h30). Against South Africa, Lindsey Horan and the Americans will celebrate Julie Ertz’s last in the selection.
Almost two months ago, we left them with their heads at the bottom of the bag. Eliminated in the round of 16 of the World Cup by the SwedenTHE UNITED STATES had lost their double crown at the end of a chaotic journey. The then coach Vlatko Andonovski did not resist this disillusionment, since temporarily replaced by Twila Kilgore.
This setback also marked the end of a cycle among the double world champions as Megan Rapinoe and Julie Ertz announced their international retirement following the world meeting. The two players will nevertheless be in the spotlight during this international break with a final match as a farewell.
For Ertz, it will be on the night of Thursday to Friday (1:30 a.m.) for the first friendly againstSouth Africa. By celebrating their future ex-teammates, Lindsey Horan and the Americans will be able to pass the pill of World Cup failure to their supporters a little more easily. The latter are announced in numbers from TQL Stadium in Cincinnati. A second meeting is then planned against the African selection, this time with Megan’s jubilee Rapinoe.
