A dark cloud hasn’t stopped following the USWNT since their shocking exit from the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup. The 4x World Champions continue to be on the receiving end of sly digs. Among many, even former U.S. President Donald Trump didn’t spare Megan Rapinoe. Amidst speculation of the team’s future, Colin Cowherd has shared his take on the entire ordeal.

Expectations were running high, with many expecting Vlatko Andonovski’s side to maintain their dominance in the prestigious tournament. But continuous dominance doesn’t come that easily. Certainly, Colin Cowherd knows this, as he interestingly compared the USWNT to the Patriots post-Tom Brady era.

The USWNT continue to hear criticism continue to hear criticism for their poor World Cup campaign. Subsequently, Colin Cowherd also made hay while the sun shone. In his latest segment of ‘Herd w/Colin Cowherd,’ the commentator reacted to the USA’s woeful tale against Sweden. “It wasn’t their day, and it wasn’t their tournament. First of all, nobody has ever won back-to-back-to-back World Cups,” he said.

Cowherd highlighted that the likes of Pele, Maradona, Ronaldo, Messi never won consecutive World Cups. While insisting that having a young team with a new coach isn’t “exactly a recipe for World Cup dominance,” he expressed his doubts over Vlatko being the right man for the job.

“Re-building dynasties is hard. We saw at the Warriors last year. Old guys, same culture, new guys not ready and they got boxed by the team in the play-offs that eventually didn’t even win. That didn’t even play the Champs. It’s hard. The Patriots post-Tom Brady. It’s hard, Spurs without Duncan. Difficult. Older players, older cultures, trying to bridge the gap. Sometimes you fire a coach, you move on to a new coach,” he added.

Cowherd believes that’s where the USWNT went wrong while adding, “this wasn’t their team” this year. Nevertheless, comparing Patriots post-Tom Brady era with USWNT is certainly interesting, as the NFL side also struggled in a similar manner. Meanwhile, you would be surprised to learn about Donald Trump’s comments about Megan Rapinoe.

In the aftermath of the USWNT’s World Cup elimination, Rapinoe found herself facing criticism from former President Donald Trump. He labeled his country’s departure from the tournament as ‘shocking and totally unexpected.’ Mr. Trump also took a subtle dig at the current US President.

In reference to Rapinoe’s critical missed penalty against Sweden, he remarked, “Nice shot Megan, the USA is going to Hell!!! MAGA.” Evidently, the conclusion to this World Cup journey was quite dismal for the United States.
