Megan Rapinoe has no regrets about volunteering to take a penalty in the USWNT's shootout with Sweden at the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup.
in the round of 16, Rapinoe stepped up to the penalty spot with an opportunity to put her team in a great position, and she had all the confidence that it was going to happen.But she didn't. Rapinoe's shot went over the crossbar and into the stands behind the goal. And all she could do in the moment was laugh — not because it was funny, but because it was a scenario she had imagined before.
"Honestly, something that has made me so successful in penalty kicks for so long is the acceptance and the realization that I will miss them," Rapinoe said."I miss them in training regularly. I’ve been lucky not to miss a lot in actual competition, but eventually, that can happen. But I love taking them. I would take them all the time. I would take that one again. I would pick me to take them."For a long time, I have thought about missing one in a really big moment.
