Megan Rapinoe Clears Out The Air Amid Missing Penalty Kick Controversy
Finally, USWNT star Megan Rapinoe cleared out the air amid the missing penalty kick controversy.

Via Fox Sports, Megan Rapinoe said, “That’s like a sick joke. That’s why I had that smile on my face. I’m like, ‘You’ve got be f—ing kidding me.’ I’m going to miss a penalty? I mean, honestly, I can’t remember the last time I missed.”
Seeing the hate on Rapinoe for her reaction to missing the pen is vile?
