It was undoubtedly a cruel way for Rapinoe to bring the curtain down on her illustrious career, but she stirred up some controversy with her post-match comments. "I’m not a religious person or anything and if there was a god, like, this is proof that there isn’t," Rapinoe said. "This is f***ed up. It’s just f***ed up. Six minutes in and I eat my Achilles."
SportsCenter presenter Sage Steele, formerly of , did not take kindly to Rapinoe's remarks. The 50-year-old, who is open about her faith and calls herself 'a believer' in her bio on X, said in a response to a video of Rapinoe's interview on the social media platform: "Narcissism at its finest."
Rapinoe will go down as one of the most influential women's players of all time, having won two World Cups and 203 caps for the USWNT. She also lifted three NWSL Shields at OL Reign and won the Ballon d'Or Feminin back in 2019.
