U.S. star Julie Ertz ended her decorated career by logging the first 35 minutes of a 3-0 win over South Africa in Cincinnati.
last month, she played every minute on a defense that conceded one goal in four games.
“It’s not because Momma can’t play. Momma can play,” she said this week. “She just has adapted priorities.” This was just the start of teary farewells. On Sunday in Chicago, 38-year-old winger Megan Rapinoe will make her last appearance in a 17-year international career as the United States and South Africa tangle again. Unlike Ertz, Rapinoe will not hang it up for good until the National Women’s Soccer League season ends this fall.
