USWNT Coach Andonovski Lashes Out At Carli Lloyd
United States Women’s National Teams Coach Vlatko Andonovski lashes out at Former USWNT Star Carli USWNT Lloyd after her comment on USWNT draws against Portugal.
USA team coach Andonovski didn’t like Carli’s recent comment regarding the team’s performance at the Women’s World Cup 2023.
Via ESPN Lloyd said,
“You put on that jersey and you want to give it everything you have, for the people that came before you and the people that are gonna come after you, and I’m just not seeing that passion.”
Lloyd also pointed out the fact that the team has taken advantage and lacking inspiration.
She said, “I’m just seeing a very lackluster, uninspiring, taking-it-for-granted, where winning and training and doing all that you can to be the best possible individual player is not happening.”
For the current USWNT coach, the comment was rude and insane questioning on team’s passion and hard work.
On such accusations Andonovski said,
“The one thing I want to say is that this team wanted to win this game more than anything else. They’ve put everything they could in preparation for this tournament and every game that they go into, so to question the mentality of this team, to question the willingness to win, to compete, I think it’s insane.”]
“To question the mentality of this team, to question the willingness to win, to compete… I think it’s insane.”

He continued, “I’ve never seen this team step on the field and not try hard or not compete. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, they can say whatever they want, but I just know how this team feels. It’s not like we played well by any means. We owned it. We know it’s not good enough. We’re not happy with our performance, but we qualified for the next round. We’re moving on.”
In the next match of USWNT with Sweden in the Round of 16, they will have a chance to show their hard work and passion.
