US Women’s Soccer Team Crushed by Sweden After Taking Knee for BLM

 Breitbart Sports   ..."The U.S. sports equivalent of a 3-0 loss in soccer is probably somewhere in the neighborhood of a 45-0 blowout in football or a 10-0 loss in baseball. So, needless to say, this is bad, real bad."

. . . "Interestingly, the USWNT is not the only woke U.S. sports team to faceplant during Olympic or pre-Olympic competition. The U.S. Men’s Basketball Team, many of whom took a knee of proudly displayed social justice messaging on their uniforms over the last year, took two stunning losses to Nigeria and Australia before somewhat righting the ship.

"So, given that pattern of wokeness leading to defeat, maybe it’s time to get off your knees and play ball."

Not all US women were classless before.


U.S. Women’s Soccer Takes a Protest Knee, Gets Trounced by Sweden 
. . . "Sweden joined the American women: “For us it really feels right to stand up for human rights. It was a communication with the U.S. team before, so for us it feels good to do that and it is something we stand for as a team.”

So Sweden did it, too, but the American women have been kneeling and complaining since 2017. Maybe they should pay more attention to their actual game:" . . . 

From the comments to this post:  . . . No, they didn’t. If you read the article you will see that they couldn’t have, because national anthems are not played before games in the Olympics. All the players, and the referee, knelt for about 10 seconds, during “pregame music”, which is not either side’s national anthem. Anthems are played during the award ceremonies, and no protests are allowed."
