I have a personal interest because one of the players [Carli Lloyd] was a student when I was the HS media specialist and I know her and boyfriend who was on my golf team. Carli is 32, a two-time Olympic gold medalist and scored the gold medal-winning goals in the finals of both the 2008 Summer Olympics and the 2012 Summer Olympics.

I watched some of the USA vs. Australia game as well as some of Nigeria vs. Sweden. The USA vs. Nigeria should be interesting. 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup - U.S. Soccer
