    The ticker tape parade celebration in New York for the 2015 USWNT team was in some ways a compensation for that early 1991 team. The 1991 team was the pioneering side that got it all rolling.

    I'm glad the United States won the World Cup with those uniforms. I like the Blue jerseys, but the white jerseys with red and blue stripes on the shoulders is my all time favorite jerseys.

      FIFA didn’t consider women’s soccer a real sport at the time so they purposely cut down their minutes and made them play with a smaller ball.

      2:19 Listen with comprehension: "Just four months before arriving in China, West Germany had won the European Women's Championship for the second time" - In 1989 Germany still played as "West Germany", and it was the same team in 1991 despite the name change after unification.
