The US defeat in the Women's World Cupis a perfect sendoff for Megan Rapinoe. The humiliating run that the United States Women's National Team had at the World Cup has finally come to an end, and it could not have been a more fitting farewell for Megan Rapinoe, who will be retiring soon.
The United States Women's National Team (USWNT) was eliminated from the World Cup after suffering a devastating defeat at the hands of Sweden in the round of 16. The match was decided by penalty kicks. It is also the end of Rapinoe's international career; he is considered a "legend" of the squad despite the fact that he does not rank in the top ten of games played and ranks tenth in the team's all-time goal scoring list.
It's a fitting send-off for Rapinoe, who transformed the USWNT's recent triumph into a politicized parade for liberals. She demonstrated her disdain for America by participating in anti-American protests during the national anthem. She is a hypocrite who expects people to "listen more and talk less" while whining and complaining about "equal pay" and having all of her facts wrong.
Rapinoe has also contributed to the demise of women's and girls' sports in the future by advocating for menand boys to participate alongside and against female athletes. Girls being wounded by male athletes, losing scholarship and roster slots, and being compelled to change in the same locker room as male athletes who claim to be female?
Rapinoe believes each of them is an issue that "doesn't even exist," despite the fact that instances can be found for all of them. Rapinoe has transformed the USWNT into a political vehicle during the last two World Cups, blatantly inciting half of the country not to partake in the team's triumph.
She spit on the American flag, which she and the rest of the squad play under. She personified the worst cliches of American arrogance. Without her, our sports culture will be stronger.
Megan Anna Rapinoe (born July 5, 1985) is a professional soccerplayer from the United States who currently plays as a winger for the OL Reign of the National Women's SoccerLeague (NWSL) and the United States national team.
Rapinoe, the winner of the Ballon d'Or Féminin and the Best FIFAWomen's Player in 2019, won gold with the national team at the 2012 London Summer Olympics, the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup, and the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup, as well as playing for the team at the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup, where the United States finished second.

From 2018 to 2020, Rapinoe co-captained the national team with Carli Lloyd and Alex Morgan. She formerly played in Women's Professional Soccer (WPS) with the Chicago Red Stars, Philadelphia Independence, and MagicJack, as well as Olympique Lyon in France's Division 1 Féminine.

Final Words

Rapinoe, on the other hand, will not leave the stage easy. She will very definitely return to the political involvement she brought to the USWNT full-time. In the name of transgenderism, she will continue to advocate for less chances for female athletes.
She will be as unpleasant and toxically political as she has been in the past. Hopefully, her political career will be filled with many more defeats like the one she suffered in her final game against Sweden.
