On Sunday, U.S. Women national soccer team was defeated by France ended up 2-0. France scored twice in the early second half and led the game. The scores were marked by Eugenie Le Sommer and Jessica Houara. Since Hope Solo suspended from the national team, Ashlyn Harris played for Solo and it was her fifth times of international appearance. It was first victory for France against U.S. in history. For United States, it was their first loss in 13 years. For sure, France had a advantage because there are couple of players missing from U.S. team including Hope Solo and Megan Rapinoe. Rapinoe has had a ligament in her right knee since training camp in January. The good news is that Alex Morgan came back to the team from her injury. He appearance would be beneficial for U.S. They need to prepare well for the this year’s world cup. United States team is in touch group with Sweden, Nigeria, and Australia. Sweden is one of the greatest teams in Europe so it would be very touch match for the United States.

I cannot wait to watch Women’s World Cup. It is now as popular as men’s FIFA World Cup. Go United States! Go NADESSHIKO JAPAN!
