Pretty clear that FIFA has sent word to the refs that the US must get to the finals for ratings purposes. Look for as many US free kicks and PK’s as necessary for Team Deviant to go through to the final as this is the only way they seem to be able to score (at least on the field).

The US has over 5x the population of any other team they play, the women's team should never lose!
For women soccer is a top level sport that gets the top athletes. When they have 5x more population to choose from, how can they ever lose? It should be like the US Olympic basketball dream teams (assuming the best basketball players actually wanted to play on the team).
For the Mens soccer it's different, soccer is much lower down and therefore the best athletes do not stay with soccer. They may start out playing soccer, but they would also play basketball, baseball, and/or football and it's those sports they would stay with when they go older.
Rapinoe will be the death of women's soccer in the US. And honestly I don't think many will care.
