“Heartbroken” “Shocked” “Gutted” “Confident” The USWNT react to captain Becky Sauerbrunn missing the World Cup as she recovers from a foot injury:
39s ago
Andonovski said he was “gutted” for Sauerbrunn and that she “will always be our captain.” He added that the team was “confident” in its ability to replace her on the field, with part of the plan potentially being to capitalize on veteran Julie Ertz’s experience at multiple positions. Veteran defender/midfielder Crystal Dunn said that she had “checked in” with Sauerbrunn. Dunn added: “She’s doing OK. She’s the leader that she is, and she’s always thinking about the team first. And I kind of had to tell her, like, ‘It’s okay to think about your situation and not only care about the team at this moment because at the end of the day, we’re all human.”Andonovski said “there’s no question” that the team will miss Sauerbrunn on and off the field.
