HOPE SOLO NOW AND THEN

HOPE SOLO NOW AND THEN

In her first interview since ripping teammate Briana Scurry and former coach Greg Ryan, U.S. goalkeeper Hope Solo talks about what went wrong 3 months ago. She says the combination of her father’s death and her childhood dream being crushed led to her outburst.

“the moment I realized we didn’t have the opportunity to win the gold medal, my world came tumbling down. I had nothing to immediately give back to my father. I was wound so tight emotionally, and the moment after the loss I broke.”

Ok.. That sounds legit. Kinda. Those things probably played a small part, but the biggest factor was Hope was pissed that she got benched.. Here’s where Hope starts lying to us:

“Never did I intend to put down a teammate, and that is the thing that hurts the most. I always have respected and will respect Bri. And that is the thing that hurts me the most.”

She never did intend to put down a teammate?!? What exactly was she trying to accomplish?
