¡Vaya actuación increíble de Leicy Santos y el Washington Spirit. Ella es la razón por la que me convertí en fan de la liga en los estados unidos. Normalmente solo comento y sigo el fútbol en Colombia. Definitivamente estaré alentando y mirando a un equipo de Estados unidos por primera vez. Definitivamente lo soy Colombiano.
- Would welcome more detail from Coach Jona with what went wrong in this match. - Such as, it appeared we struggled mightily dealing with KC's immediate & aggressive high press. Our back-line through ball passing was weak & KC pounced, with numerous takeaways before we could even turn up-field. Was it our shape in the midfield? Or, KC's aggressive & physical press on those passes? Or, simply what looked like bad passes out of our back-line? We hardly could get out of our back-third, not to mention crossing mid-field. ...Also, it is bad enough we're now without Croix Bethune, but having to go without Ouly Sarr too creates a big hole for us. Sarr is crafty as a target for our midfielders & back-line on through ball passes, with good ball control when receiving passes, then quick with astute passes of her own, & getting out on dangerous attacking runs herself. We missed her dearly & need her back. Kouassi looks skilled & talented, but her 1v1 decisions showed youth & inexperience. She needs to learn & ramp up quickly. It is just too much on Trinity Rodman to have to carry the offense with opposing defenses leaning so heavily on her. Sarr needs to return & others need to step up. Then, ...Wow! We really need to figure out our set-piece strategy. It is just unacceptable it is 'this weak', especially with our corner-kicks. ...Finally, when she entered the match, Esme Morgan displayed smart, clean, & precise through-ball passing from the back-line which was elite & something we badly needed right at the 'start' of the match. Something to consider going forward.

Weird. Nobody seems to be able to realizing what the arrival of Jonathan means to the future of USA’s women’s soccer. It is just PHENOMENAL! Washing Spirit will be next Barcelona! USA women’s national team will be rebuilt on top of Washington Spirit. USA women’s soccer team will dominate the world!
I think he was implying she may have been dealing with a minor injury? Cause when she subbed in she had a sleeve on her thigh then it switched to tape in the second half.
@Nessahhhxx Yeah, I did notice the sleeve and tape during the game, so I figured she was dealing with an injury. His comments here were confusing, tho.
Trinity said she didn't have much of a relationship with her father. But I think it's cool that she still admires him. You can tell because she's always wearing t-shirts with his likeness on it.
Wish The Washington Spirit organization would run closed captions in English at the bottom of their video screen during these post game presser when questions & answers are in Spanish.
Congratulations ladies and coache Giráldez for the massive victory over the andosnovski kc !!! 👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹💖⚽️ You are happy as well millions out there who are rooting for you !!! We’re glad to see you play today Trinity. It’s been more than 2 weeks after the gold medal game. Sarr, Croix, Hal, Methayer, Carle, Cruger and the rest wouldn’t be the same without you. Everytime you got the ball in your feet, the crowd went wild expecting something good, crazy about to happen…. Be your best, top of your game ALL THE TIME, Trinity. That’s our wishes for you!!! 4-1. Washington Spirit!!! 🌹💖⚽️🇺🇸👍🤩

Nobody ask Trinity if her goal reminds her of the goal against japan in olympics and if that left foot to side netting is gonna be Trinity's signature move now 😂
Total agree! I guess it’s up to the Washington Spirit who posts this on line if they care enough for the electronic audience to sub English for them every time Giráldez speaks Spanish, we would appreciate it!!!
I watched Barcelona women since the English players arrived. They really were something else, though the other teams in the Spanish league were not at that level. The UCL showed how good they were. The explanation of Jonatan's methodology is like operational research applied to football.
She is f*cking incredible. I got to see her go from some past games, and she has incredible kicking power, and can see the floor like no other. She also has incredible chemistry on the field with her teammates, and they all play well together. They are all incredible players, but I can tell that she makes her teammates better, and that's what good leaders do. And her mates show how much they're respect and enjoyment for her, her confidence rubs off on them. She's awesome. ❤🖤
It would be nice to have a little skills challenge at the end. Line all the players up 25 yards out to shoot the ball at a 2x2 foot target or drop it into a garbage bin. Hit it and the opponent's head coach drops into the dunk tank or a pie to the face 😂😂😂😂
Washington Spirits, you ladies did very well today despite lack of full squad. Be proud, hold your head high, and learn from this game. They have full regular players you didn’t. I saw they were not that good for being “ARSENAL “ that many have revered. No sweat, no worry, no shame, no intimidation whatsoever to play against one of these teams in Barclays clubs, ok!!! You ladies are capable to BEAT THEM IF YOU HAVE A FULL SQUAD NEXT TIME!!! Congratulations to coach Giráldez and Spirits Ladies for a great effort to show Arsenal is just another team like any others in NWSL. GO WASHINGTON SPIRITS!!! ⚽️💖⚽️🇺🇸👍🤩
Arsenal fielded a few academy players. Have some humility please. Spirit didn't finish their chances because of their poor quality. They need to work more and improve otherwise they're not winning the cup this season.
Greenwood is a huge player in the Lionesses backline. Morgan place is filling those shoes. And she does so brilliantly. Esme is going to be our rock at the back in the future.
@@unknownnamerealpicture SW played her very effectively on the left. But I see no reason why she couldn't step into Greenwood's, Williamson's or Bronze's boots when the time comes. I think the options are being deliberately left open. And I refer not just to position but also function in the team. It's early days, but Esme has greatly impressed. We are eager for more. In England.
@@SimonDover as a Washington spirit fan, I agree. I did a little research on her today. She is really good and she made an excellent choice to play for the Washington Spirit under the coach that they have. He will only develop her. Like he is currently developing the United States future midfield. I say that because Emma Hayes took six players from the Washington spirit and ate from Gotham. That’s the most she took from NWSL teams and those are both coaches from Spain. Anyway, Jonathan mentioned that he was looking forward to developing the technical ability of the midfield on the Washington spirit and they’re all rookies in their first season and fun fact Croix Bethune grew up in England, and her early years and she cut out to the reason she loves football so much. She will likely be the next attacking midfielder that will be between her and probably Lily Johannes who plays in Holland for Ajax. Jonathan said two days ago that it’s gonna take a little bit of time for him to implement what he wants to do at the Washington spirit. He said he has a clear mandate from Miss Kang. They have a five-year or more plan to develop the Washington spirit into a premier club that plays football people wanna watch he said and played at a consistent level. I’m fascinated to see what the spirit will look like they say next year about six games in. I think you’ll see a lot more positional play a lot more build up out of the back positional play in the final third with triangles with the midfield like Barcelona in Spain do he mentioned that. she’s getting the best of the world being technically developed by him and his staff which he has like 70 personnel which is insane but besides that she will go against about three or four transitional teams, so she will learn how to defend against players that want to play the transition game, so England doesn’t end up like Spain at this past Olympics at the next World Cup. I hope you got what I was trying to say
