Week 3: The Round of 16

We process all of the round of 16 action knock-out, including the USWNT’s early (but not entirely unexpected) exit, Julie Ertz’s remarks about her possible retirement from the international game, and the ins and outs of Lauren James’ red card. We pay homage to the teams that are making an impact on their federations, like Colombia.
Karen tries to find the chicken wing stand at Sydney Football Stadium and lets us in on the carnivalesque atmosphere for the Matildas vs. “the Danishes” showdown at Stadium Australia, which was filled to capacity at over 75,500, while Jennifer gives us insight on France vs. Morocco from her local village boulangerie, including the significance of Benzina’s presence on the pitch in her hijab for Morocco, in light of an oppressive and islamophobic French ban of hijabs in all sports.
Plus, a glimpse into the ACFC Equity House afterparty at Bondi Icebergs and an update on all of our international angels, including Endo’s ball distribution, Captain Riley’s trip to Hobbiton, and Swaby’s memefication.
