WATCH: U.S. Soccer Player Allie Long Drags and Drops American Flag; Kelley O'Hara Jumps in to Save It
...
After the United States Womens National Soccer Teams (USWNT) won the 2019 FIFA Womens World Cup for the fourth time, co-captain Megan Rapinoe and midfielder Allie Long can be seen disrespecting the flag.
Long dropped the American flag on the ground to do a choreographed celebration with Rapinoe and co-captain Alex Morgan. While posing for the cameras, Long and Rapinoe dragged the American flag with their feet after it was on the ground.
Midfielder Kelley OHara quickly picked up the flag after it was beginning to be dragged along Long and Rapinoes feet.

If they hate America so much why are they playing on an American team?
Thank you for that post.
Looks like the rest of the posters had a double helping of stupid for breakfast.
“It’ll be a forever stain on their children when and if they ever have any.”
For some (eg Rapinoe) there won’t be any unless a tongue will do it.
Eurotrash ball.
Yep. Now that trannies can claim to be wimmen, the dykes are going to have to move over for the latest, greatest, oppressed lot.
Give her a break. She was lost in the moment. You can even see her realize her mistake and pick it up giving it to the other player. This is stupid.
Pull Megan Rapinoe and Allie Long’s passports and let them stay in France or put them on a No Fly List ,LOL
Turkey basters are also a thing.
I’m hardly butt hurt.
I’m disgusted with all the posters who want to paint the entire team as anti-American when there is evidence to the contrary.
We ought to be celebrating them instead of condemning them.
What’s wrong with people?
No offense, but Ive heard from no one on that team uttering anything but agreement with the group of idiots on the team. Well see how others react now that they are individuals with the event is over and with access to microphones at will. Not holding my breath that we hear any condemnation of the anthem disrespect or political nonsense going on before and throughout the tournament.
“.....going to hurt the sport.....”
And they all wonder why the stands are empty and they aren’t making big money when they act like this and only one person of a 20 plus person team was willing to make a statement they were wrong. And the bad part is, she never spoke up before and didn’t stop the problem from reaching our youth with this political manure. If only one is going to do it, and she’s late with the act, then is it worth it to anyone but the players?
