Considering retirement is like skirting with the reality of what's to come, and I think that's why so many athletes decide to do more introspection at that point.

I think I take on a little more responsibility when push comes to shove. I'm not scared to fail.

I think making the referee aware of a situation, there is nothing wrong with that.

I always wanted to be more validated as a human being, as a person, than I was as a player. I think that was a really hard balance for me.

I am not a politician by nature, but I will say I think there need to be more women in FIFA, and I would be open to having those conversations when the time is right.

Having different people come together and be on a team and win a world championship is literally, I think, the definition of being American.
