Abby Wambach and Team USA takes on France tomorrow

After Team USA’s stunning win against Brazil on Sunday in the FIFA Women’s World Cup, I suspect there will be a rather large TV audience ready to watch the action as they take on France tomorrow at noon EST. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out Abby Wambach’s goal to tie up the match against Brazil.

The team deserves all the support and attention they are getting. Check out the video below for some background on the team.

Scoring goals. Playing defense. It doesn’t matter.

Abby Wambach will do anything for her team.

She doesn’t feel pressure. She overpowers it.

Pressure Makes Us

Intense training prepares the US soccer team for the FIFA Women’s World Cup

The World Cup was a huge hit last year with the men’s tournament, and now the women have their turn. The US women are much more competitive than the men, so I think this tournament will be very popular. The Germans will be tough to beat on their home turf, but if the US women can win this one they can set up a rivalry of soccer powerhouses with Germany. Check out some of their training methods in this video.

Pressure was there from day one. Preparing to conquer it started 279 days ago. Join in the USWNT quest towards the title.
