Call me a traitor, but as much as I love the US team and Emma Hayes, I can't help but root for Marta to win a trophy on Saturday. She has been a joy to watch on the pitch the last two decades.
Forgive the men's football comparison, but the mention of Fox and Girma reminds me a little of when Gary Neville & Rio Ferdinand were at Manchester United men. Neville says that before every game Rio would say to him, "Nothing down our side!", and that's redolent of how secure Fox and Girma are on the right side of the US defence.
