USWNT gets its bronze medal as Carli Lloyd, Megan Rapinoe each score twice in likely international finale

With the Olympics Games underway, seven Olympians share their techniques for staying focused throughout competition.KASHIMA, Japan — If this was the last game at a major international tournament for Megan Rapinoe and Carli Lloyd, they sure made it one to remember.

“As you can imagine, we’ve done lots of talking and meetings and hashing it all out and doing the autopsy," Rapinoe said of how the team reacted after the ."But I felt like we just got to a good place and we’re either going to come out and play great or play shitty so just be a bit more free. Trust in ourselves. Trust in each other.”

Rapinoe got things off to a raucous start, scoring an “olimpico” in the eighth minute. That’s the term for a goal scored directly off a corner kick and, while they’re usually rare, this is actually Rapinoe’s second at the Olympics after doing it in 2012. “We found that joy," Rapinoe said."We found that freedom. And we just settled into the game early, which is great.”

Someone please ask mpinoe about vscollective. Megan, Please step down & apologize. VICTORIA'S SECRET IS A CRIME SCENE. Les Wexner & his company L Brands funded Jeffrey Epstein's child sex trafficking. The VS Collective is a cover up. victoriassecret
