Ladies and gentlemen, this is the World Cup. let the athletes have some fun. Oh, and for those who criticized the women for “running up the score,” let’s settle down.

Thanks to the 13-0 win, the United States now sits firmly in the top spot in Group F. While they are tied with Sweden at 3 points, they hold a +11 advantage in goal differential which is a tiebreaker to advance to the knockout stage of the tournament. Up next for the United States women’s national team is a meeting with Chile on June 16 at Parc des Princes in Paris.
