The U.S. won this 2019 World Cup like Americans, which is to say noisily, without apology or fear, writes jasongay

The U.S. Women’s National Team defeated the Netherlands, 2-0, in the Women’s World Cup Final on Sunday in Lyon, France—a stressful but stirring victory for a lightning-rod soccer outfit with a champion’s ability to turn down the noise, and excel when it counted most.
