Lindsey Horan Delivered A Masterclass In Shit Talking By Telling A Dutch Player To 'Shut Your Fucking Mouth' Right Before Scoring Last Night

Last night was one of the more anticipated group stage games for the US women's team in, I don't know, forever? We usually coast through these, win games by 3 or 4 and then get challenged in knockout stage. But last night we had the Netherlands/Dutch/Holland/whatever the fuck else they go by. Rematch of the 2019 World Cup final, which we won of course. But this is just set up for poetic justice at its finest. Lindsey Horan, one of our co-captains, delivering elite shit talking and backing it up. It was the ultimate fuck you goal after this: 

Even had some more words for her: 

There's plenty of comparisons here since Horan and van De Donk play on the same club team. You could go Kobe and Pau in the Olympics and the Netflix doc:

You could go a little Ted Lasso with Dani Rojas and Zoreaux in Ted Lasso: 

Just a perfect header and response by Horan. That's the American way. Sure, it was a tie. Whatever, it's group stage. This is where we need to figure out our lineup, get Rose healthy and let Trinity Rodman find the back of the net at some point. Also, someone tell this new manager that he's allowed to sub more than once. Just a little armchair quarterbacking common sense. 

 But this? This is just elite shit talking and backing it up. It's what we need to do. American women's soccer is the best in the world and always has been. Talk shit to everyone else playing in the World Cup as you go for a three-peat. I want to be the villains. I want to be the bad guys. I want to act like Iceland in D2, only with the winning part.
