Carli Lloyd Was Fucking Disgusted That The US Women's Team Had The Audacity To Dance Around On The Field After Tying Portugal
Ugh! Sickening, disgusting and just downright awful. Now, is it embarrassing for the USWNT to tie twice in group stage? Of course. We dominate the shit out of the women's World Cup. And of course it's embarrassing for us to advance with a tie and one that we were lucky because of a post:
But come on. Is Carli Lloyd of all people going to be the one to talk about distractions and dancing? If you remember the 2019 World Cup, there was arguably no bigger distraction than Carli Lloyd who bitched and moaned that she wasn't getting more minutes. It was the story of the 2019 World Cup. It was talked about all the damn time, which makes that comment by Rob Stone (who I really like as a studio host) even funnier.
Hey, tying sucks. But it's group stage. Let's all just relax for a goddamn second because the US is moving on. That's all that matters in any soccer event. Get out of group stage then win the whole goddamn thing. It's embarrassing we finished 2nd in the group behind Netherlands (who we beat in the 2019 Finals), but that's just because we're used to winning. Red, white and blue baby.
There's plenty of reasons as to why this team isn't beating the shit out of Portugal, Vietnam and Netherlands. Dancing ain't one of them. Injuries is one. 5 starters are either out of the entire World Cup or playing limited time. The rest of the players have just been whatever too. You got this weird mix of youth and experience but it's not fitting. They are just skating by, which again, whatever in group stage. Plus Vlatko is a manger who seems asleep at the wheel, even if he throws a bunch of shit back at Carli:
But come on, we really gonna go with the low hanging fruit of dancing on the field? She even threw out that the dancing pregame was the problem! (2:30 mark)
That's it. Time to get serious for the Round of 16 and implement a no TikTok, no shaking your ass rule.
