As a young child, my parents enrolled me in many different sports. I went from running around the soccer field chasing the ball with the other five year olds to traveling around the Midwest for weekend tournaments. Although I don’t play anymore, I still love the game and am ecstatic the United States Women’s soccer team once again was able to defend their World Cup title.
The 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup took place between June 7 and July 7 in nine cities across France, consisting of 24 national teams and 52 matches. On July 7, the United States defended its 2015 title with a 2-0 victory over the Netherlands.
