A thread from the #canyonofheroes

Lots of young female soccer players here today, like this crew from Point pleasant New Jersey.

And the Sadlak sisters from Long Island, all three are A team players and said the Sunday game inspired them to dream big and try really really hard in whatever they pursue.

10 minutes folks, crowds are ready 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

From the #canyonofheroes

The crowd cannot stop shrieking #canyonofheroes #worldcup

Chants of USA along with Equal Pay up and down the street.

Crowd is heckling US Soccer Federation President Carlos Cordeiro with shouts of “equal pay” and “cut the check”

Crowd again going crazy for Rapinoe again...

“Everybody in a position of piety gets booed,” Rapinoe says in support of Carlos Cordeiro of US Soccer federation, “we look forward to holding his feet to the fire.”

Crowd looking on

Misquote it is “power” not piety!!!

There you have it folks

The crowd is loving it. 🎉
