After losing the USA match versus Sweden in the OIympics by failing to stop penalty kicks (and allowing a goal earlier), now she's out of a job (though still with the Seattle team I guess).She was also suspended for 6 months.
Beyond the suspension, Solo said in a statement to USA TODAY Sports that her contract was terminated by U.S. Soccer.
“The comments by Hope Solo after the match against Sweden during the 2016 Olympics were unacceptable and do not meet the standard of conduct we require from our National Team players,†U.S. Soccer President Sunil Gulati said in a statement. “Beyond the athletic arena, and beyond the results, the Olympics celebrate and represent the ideals of fair play and respect. We expect all of our representatives to honor those principles, with no exceptions.â€
On Twitter, her lawyer blames the whole thing on her being female.
