Carli Lloyd shares an emotional message ahead of her final USWNT appearances

Carli has been an integral part of the ‘golden generation’ of the USWNT. In what is surely going to be an emotional day for everyone involved, Lloyd will represent USA for the final time against South Korea.

“It’s bittersweet and going to be extremely emotional but there is no greater feeling than representing the crest and playing for my country. I will miss everything about it but in the meantime, I am going to savor every last moment I have with this team and give it all I have till I walk off the field one final time,” said Lloyd.

A victory to end her storied career would be the perfect icing on the cake. The matches will be played at Kansas City’s Children’s Mercy Park (Oct. 21) and Minnesota United’s Allianz Field (Oct. 26). Fans will be desperate to watch Lloyd for the final time.

Likewise, U.S. coach Vlatko Andonovski spoke about the friendlies and how they are excited to see her play.

“We always want to keep improving and evolving as a team, win every game we play, and put on a good show for the fans, but during this camp, we will really focus on a few basic things–continuing to support each other while getting to do what we love on the field, and of course, giving Carli Lloyd the send-off she deserves,” said Andonovski.

The soccer superstar won two Olympic gold medals in 2008 and 2012, two World Cups in 2015 and 2019 while also becoming Fifa Player of the Year twice in 2015 and 2016. One of her most iconic moments came during the 2015 World Cup when she scored a remarkable goal from the halfway line against Japan. With Megan Rapinoe, Hope Solo, Alex Morgan, and others, the USWNT enjoyed phenomenal success.

Hence, a stupendous career is ending. Her service to her nation is remarkable and will live on forever in the memory of American soccer fans. She’ll bid goodbye to the sport as one of the true icons of the beautiful game.
