Megan Rapinoe has said she expects a ‘paradigm shift globally’ for all women’s sport after the Women’s World Cup this summer in Australia and New Zealand. Rapinoe, who was named player of the tournament at the 2019 World Cup, made the comments at the US team’s media day.
‘It feels like a real opportunity to blow the lid off, just in terms of fanfare and media and sponsorships and the sort of larger business around this sport,’ said the United States forward, who will play at her fourth World Cup. The defending champions will face the Netherlands, Portugal and Vietnam in Group E.
