The USWNT were in New Zealand for their first match, playing Vietnam. While Vietnam proudly sang their anthem at the FIFA Women’s World Cup for the first time, the US players barely sang their National Anthem.
5 out of the 11 players put their hand on their heart and sang the American National Anthem.
In what appeared to be an act of defiance, most in US Women’s Soccer team did not sing the anthem, despite hundreds of fans in the stadium who were there to support them.
The world cup champions are no strangers to protests during the playing of the National Anthem. Led by Megan Rapinoe the team has taken the knee multiple times, in protests inspired by Colin Kaepernick.

Our Vietnamese girls can teach the woke 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸how to sing 🎶 their anthem 😂😂😂😂😂
Who are you? You're awesome!!!
They showed their true colors, when they went home early!
"Everything is considered racists." Amen my sister, well said!
You try singing the anthem in "sun down" towns. Stop being a stooge for your enemies. Do you even know the original lyrics of the anthem ?
Globalism is what's going on. The west is "their" toughest foe, so they're focusing their fight on us right now. Perhaps because they believe the rest of the "non" free world will comply much easier.
Btw, I went through my g grandparents migrant papers recently after my Mom passed away. In those that I had there was a common theme. The US required new migrants to forgo and swear their allegiance to the US. It was expected. And there was very little by the way of assistance. No food, $, or place to stay. Since white westerners became a minority migrant by far in the 1960's the amount of assistance became 100 fold but our new fellow country men were taught that were came from privilege when it was quite the opposite.
I just with they once taught history the actual way it happened without bias and with enough of each components so students could draw their own opinion. 20 years ago when it was PC to celebrate how far we've come as a country and how non racist we were, that's what the people believed. Now they believe just the opposite which is the furthest from the truth they can get at this time. Sorry for the book. Peace.
Losers! As a proud American, I’m glad you lost! 😃
usa women team should be ashamed. Never in my life never see this before.why they even bother play for usa. I am so proud for the our Vietnamese team.Thank god they got knock out by SWEDEN.
For the ones who hate their county – your country hates you back
They are spoiled, ungrateful brats. Thank god they are out.
Good riddance to the US soccer team losing to Sweden 5-4 in penalties. Rapinoe of course missed a key penalty and laughed it off . I'm glad this cancer is gone after this World Cup , time for some younger girls that actually want to represent their country with pride.
It's none of your business if human beings refrain from singing rational anthems. Only bullies and fascists would try to coerce anyone into this.
English people dare not act patriotically, dare not love their country. Scots, Welsh, Irish they can fly flags and are passionate to the point they want to break the Union up….and join the EU 🤨. I accept the right wing groups have hijacked the English flag for their obscene agenda, but why are the English the ones who get it every blooming time.
It’s like Christianity. That’s fair game for jokes. I’m a practising Roman Catholic and one of my favourite films is Life of Brian. But dare tap into any other religion…that’s hate speech and you may even get a death threat. So weird and so sad really.
Strip them of everything..and get a new team ..AN AMERICAN TEAM…..THEY CAN FELL,SAY DO …..WHATEVER THEY WANTBUT NOT IN …..THAT UNFORM……….THEY WILL BE HATED IN TEXAS ❤❤❤
WHAT IN HELL THESE GIRLS THINK THEY ARE??? HOW CAN IT BE THAT THE PRESIDENTS AND UPPER MANAGEMENT PEOPLE OF WOMEN'S SOCCER CAN LET THIS STUPIDITY TO HAPPEN??? ALL THESE GIRLS THAT SHOWED THIS ATTITUDE TOWARDS OUR NATIONAL ANTHEM SHOULD BE KICKED OUT OF THE TEAM. I WILL NOT ENDORSE WOMEN'S SOCCER FOR NOTHING UNTIL SOME REAL LEADERS TAKE OVER AND SHOW THESE GIRLS RESPECT FOR OUR COUNTRY, OUR NATIONAL ANTHEM, THE SPORT AND THE FANS. AND THEY WANT TO EARN SAME AS MEN??? YEAHHH RIGHT!!!!
I am an American.
I am Hispanic American.
I am a Christian and a patriot.
I am a Man.
I am bold and proud of my nation.
We are the most Christian nation in the world.
We have power to protect the world and Christianity.
We come in white, Black, Hispanic, Native, Asian, Jewish, and all other ethnicities.
One nation under God.
Those against us, are against the great defender of Israel, and against the Most High God of Angelic Powers.
God bless America.

This us why they're getting their asses handed to them on the green.
Quit pontificating. Start playing.
Disgraceful. You should not be playing for your national team of you don't want to sing the national anthem.
Literally some of the most privileged people on the planet because they are citizens of the United States.
It’s cause they are all adult children that just want to feel validated. They should all be removed from the team.
Disappointed, very disappointed. Megan Rapinoe’s ideologies have lots to do with this
Kamala Harris. What can I say, it is a disgrace. Obama was literally the best President in decades. Decades. I am white and saw him be one of the greats. I just know how intelligent and caring, and truly amazing black women can be. It is sad to have her be your representation. You deserve so much better.
Honestly, I don’t get this. You don’t like your country, leave. You are not a kidnapped individual. You are not chained down. Leave. Make yourself happy. Go to a better place. You can make some space for the immigrants clawing there way in. Problem solved.
You're still a Brit Irene. It's football! After all, it is a real ball and you have to use your feet. I'm British but know from family how important it is to at least hold your hand on your heart during US national anthem. Why is it that now women have more representation, power, and privilege that they have lost their class, accountability, and femininity? Seems a very bad trade-off to me. Their choice I guess!
"you have what you want" …far from it.
I agree with you, in their eyes the 'right' person is in The White House now so stop complaining! the American woman needs to watch the Philippine team, most of the players are not born there, Sara Eggesvik was even born in Norway, but they all sang the anthem wich is completely in Tagalog!
If you think these girls are not patriotic you need to know that there are 70 American born women playing in the WWC 2023 only 23 of them are playing for America. If your people continue to b like this you are going to destroy the US dominance in soccer. Not all the teams in the World Cup sang thier National anthem. Many are Americans playing for other countries but because of the hatred you guys have for USWNT they are not playing for US and the rest of the world is looking for excuse to knock you guys off your arrogant blocks they are offering, land cars citizenships anything to lure them from the US. 18 Members of the Philippino team are American Citizens who would rather play for Philippines than US. 12 Members of the Jamaican team are American citizens who prefer to play for Jamaica the list goes on! The Horan with her hand on her chest has already been lured from US to Barcelona and the same is slowly happening to the rest of your team. If you are not careful you will just hear that they are no longer playing for US. So why don't you focus on how you can stop that from happening instead of making the problem worse.
This just goes to show the ignorance of all the people whining about this. You obviously have never watched a football match. Everyone stands during their anthem, some sing along, some don’t. Doesn’t mean a goddam thing!
I spent 20 years in the Marines, I never sing. That's the beauty of being free and not forced to sig heil to the maga bs.
Plus they are sport players not singers you can move your lips with no singing and yeah everybody has an opinion about everything
What is next they must cry like North Korea
There is a deal struck in all sports like the NFL and the NBA and soccer the you stand for the national anthem and no more kneeling. It is a good deal I didn’t notice the signing, president trump did not put his hand on his heart with little criticism
If the American girls hate their country, why are they trying hard to win the cup for the USA?
I have never sung 'my' national anthem since I finished primary school.
Funny thing… I never sing the national anthem when it is being played. Why? Because absolutely no one does.
You are a black woman in America, and you still wonder what is there for them to complain about? They have people of color on the team and members of the LGBTQ community. It's a way of passing a message, and I have no problem with it.
Well, they only learned to walk upright last week. It's expecting too much to have them sing so quickly.
If you hate the country then don't play representing it.
They're not playing for the US. They're playing for their own selfish personal agendas.
If they hate our country so much, they should try leave and try living somewhere else with their shenanigans. They will be begging to come back, just ask Brittney Griner. Shame on these entitled spoiled brats! I am certain their legacy of disrespect will be proudly passed on to the next generations. History will look back upon all those who disrespect and hate our country and I believe all will wish they could have a do-over. There is a very high price to be paid for what these extremists are doing to the USA. It will soon be time to pay that bill!
women ?? go figure. then they whine. this attitude ?? hardly to impress the big bag ho;lders
You Sing National Anthem and let the girls play bigmouth. you Americans always want to look for something to say about USA women's soccer team they have done a lot in past years what about men's soccer what the fuck they did only sing Anthem and can't play OMG you people are crazy
I don't even called this disrespectful, is just play stupidity, I have never seen anyone in USA watching Women soccer, they're are know for political stance.. here in USA most people don't care if they win or loose..is not a secret they "claim" to hate USA..
my dream is to see 11 trans athletes from Tahiti play against the US national. I'd guarantee it'd be something like 50 to nil.
Hopefully a few of these ladies can find their way into the Russian prison system. Teach them some respect for the country they take for granted and openly disrespect. Either way, they aren’t as good as a high school boys team so don’t waste your time watching them. Go to your local high school and watch a higher quality game for free.
