WELLINGTON : Lindsey Horan bounced back from a hard hit to show her mettle as a captain in Thursday's 1-1 draw against the Netherlands, coach Vlatko Andonovski said, as she asserts her leadership at the Women's World Cup.
Horan gingerly got to her feet and hobbled off to the sideline as the U.S. were down 0-1, before returning moments later to the pitch, where she and van de Donk shared an angry exchange. "Obviously, it's a very difficult moment. And instead of crying about it, she just goes and makes a statement," said Andonovski."And basically shows everyone where the direction of the game is going to take. I was very happy with her."
But as far one of her former national team mates was concerned, the incident was a good reminder to U.S. opponents: Don't make Horan mad.
