First Cap, First Goal


Congrats to Rachel Buehler on her first-ever cap! It's great to see one of the everyone's favorite U.S. Youth National Team veteran (she's been playing for our youth teams since around 2000!) finally getting a full WNT cap after coming back from two ACL surgeries during her youth and college career. Also kudos to Tobin Heath for her first goal. The kid is a quick starter. First, she gets a nutmeg on the first touches of her first cap last January in China, then comes off the bench today to score on her first touches of the second half.

I asked Heath if she kept the ball. I don't believe it had even occurred to her to do so; more evidence that this team has their priorities in order.
