Dennis Rodman’s daughter makes her World Cup debut

Dennis Rodman shares two children with his ex-wife, both of whom have grown up to become accomplished sportspeople. His son, DJ Rodman, followed in his footsteps to become a basketball player. But his daughter, Trinity Rodman, chose to pursue soccer.

The youngest drafted player in NWSL history, Trinity recently joined Team USA for the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup. A victory in the tournament would help the United States become the first men’s or women’s soccer team to win three straight World Cups.

The young soccer star made her WC debut during a match held at Eden Park in Auckland, between the USA and Vietnam two days ago. Serving in the forward position, her team was able to score three goals and emerge victorious.
