Veterans Rapinoe, Morgan named in US World Cup squad
NEW YORK: Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan will play in their fourth Women's World Cup alongside a number of new faces as United States head coach Vlatko Andonovski unveiled his squad on Wednesday ahead of their bid for an unprecedented third consecutive title.
Key defender Naomi Girma, 23, earned a spot after bursting on to the scene last year and uncapped 25-year-old midfielder Savannah DeMelo was a surprise inclusion amid a strong National Women's Soccer League season. "We believe in the quality of the team, we believe in the support that we have and we think that we have what it takes to make it possible," said Andonovski, who took the reins from Jill Ellis in 2019.
"From lifting trophies to fighting for gender equity, these women have been a source of inspiration to Americans of all ages - our family included," Biden said.
