Thank you @gabamado for bringing the Portuguese flavor to ESPN. It has been desperately needed for so long. Viva Portugal 🇵🇹

Shoutout to @theportkids for the live re-enactment of the past year of my life #FallRiverDayofPortugal

Said it before, will say it again. The best way for this team to defend is to ATTACK #USWNT #USA

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

Five defenders really helped there #smh #USA #USWNT

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

5-4-1 when we’re defending a 2-goal lead. Vlatko, my guy, you have so disappointed me this tournament #USWNT #USA

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

That’s what I won’t miss from Carli Lloyd. Tobin Heath was wide open. #Uswnt #USAvAUS

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

Sweet nutmeg #USAvAUS #USWNT

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

Okay, we’re gonna pretend that isn’t a handball #USAvAUS

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

First time I can actually rationalize getting up at 4 a.m. for a game. And, it’s is not because they’re winning. #USWNT is pressing more in the attack, making more precise passes in transition, and trying to take players on. All things they’ve been capable of doing #USAvAUS

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

Tactical style of play begets winning mentality. That’s my takeaway for #USWNT #USAvAUS #Olympics

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

Think the gap between Naeher and Franch was a LOT bigger than I thought. #USAvAUS #USWNT

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

If we played this style against Australia in the first matchup, I’d have to think the “mentality” would have been different in the knockout rounds. #USAvAUS #USWNT #USA

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

Yeah Sam Kerr is great, but can’t get beat near post #USWNT #USAvAUS

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

That was dope from #Rapinoe #Olympics #USAvAUS #USWNT

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

@NWSL That’s not a chop; it’s a cut. Filthy cut, but a cut nonetheless. A chop is an entirely different move.

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

@HozeKing You searched the #USWNT hashtag, then commented on a tweet from someone you don’t know, who isn’t famous in any way. And probably did so at an ungodly hour. Power of deductive reasoning says you might care. 🤷🏻‍♀️ But hey troll on. I won’t be replying past this.

[Kayla Faria @fariakay]

Okay so #USWNT didn’t even have anything near their best tournament w/ so many players not in form. But let’s not say they didn’t “deserve” it bc they played poorly. It’s not like Canada’s form was good either. Goal was entirely against the run of play.
