One of the great ones. GOOD LUCK
Happy trails Ali❣️ I will be watching you in your final season, very happy for you and your family❣️ Thank you for all you’ve done for soccer and communities across the nation ❤️🙏
Bittersweet but congrats Ali!!!🎉
She deserves a day off.
And she's got two babies to raise.
Times move on and new players come in, but whenever I think of the USWNT I will always think of Ali and Ash.
She went out as an NWSL champ. No one deserves it more. Such a legend, on and off the field ❤ she really did leave the game better than she found it.
She will be missed!! Great human!! Much love and respect ✊ ❤

Love u
MLS fans saying nobody cares like she isn't more followed than any of your players.
"Krieger" in German means, 'warrior.'
Ali didn't know this until she joined FFC Frankfort and her teammates had to tell her.
What kind of warrior
After winning 2015 World Cup, team manager, Jill Ellis ignored her going into 2019 WC.
Running out of defensive options right before 2019 WC, Ellis had to swallow some pride and invited Krieger to join the team.
Krieger was on the field for all 540 minutes that USWNT held opponents scoreless winning the 2015 WC.
Always thought of as the fastest USWNT player, her subtle character waylaid her.
But, she was on the pitch and collected a WC medal at the end of 2015.
Younger girls pushed her out of the 2019 starting lineup.
But Kelley O'Hara playing right back took a bad head knock late in the first half of the WC final against the Neatherlands and Krieger subbed in.
All Krieger had to do was shut down Lieke Martens and/or Vivienne Miedeme... No simple task!
If you watch the second half of that final, you never see Martens or Miedema because the Neatherlands knew Krieger had them in her pocket. Full warrior mode!
When the final whistle blew, we finally got to see Krieger.. walking up to the podium to collect her second WC gold medal.
Jill Ellis and Pia Sundhage were both corrosive harpies and unfit. The teams won despite their inept coaches.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great person
❤❤❤ her!!!
♥️🇩🇰
❤🇮🇪
Oh c’ est pas vrai .
Vous nous manquerez, snif 😢
😮😮😮😮😮🎉😂❤
Thought she had retired a few years ago,or was replaced by a younger player?
That sounds so wrong 'professional soccer' 😅😅😅😅
Why?
her season is already over
ALI Krieger says that Gotham FC will win a title? I doubt that likely. Gotham FC are not contenders they are pretenders. You have to beat Portland thorns to win a title. Gotham FC are not gonna a title even if ALI Says they will….they have to play well in order to become title contenders.
I wonder what this world has turned to. A woman calling another Woman "my wife". It's nothing short of evil
It's love. Nothing wrong with that
