United States had looked defeated after Netherlands' Jill Roord scored a goal in the 17th minute, the first time United States trailed in a World Cup game since the 2011 quarterfinals. In the second half Lindsey Horan became angry after a hard tackle by Netherlands’ van de Donk. Minutes later Lindsey scored the equalizer on a thunderous header. USA humbled Orange Lionesses’ Roord— don’t make Lindsey mad

Thanks to Lindsey, USA was able to reverse the momentum for a 1-1 draw. Your poem is very timely to honor the team, Mark. Some players are just special as you so wonderfully convey in this poem.
