Here's an idea: If you win 13-0—the most goals for a single game in World Cup history—you should be paid at least equally to the men's team.
Congratulations, #USWNT!

The only thing #uswnt should be concerned with is winning the world cup. The best way to do that is to play every match with the foot on the gas

For all that have issue with many goals: for some players this is there first World Cup goal, and they should be excited. Imagine it being you out there.This is your dream of playing and then scoring in a World Cup. Celebrate.Would you tell a men’s team to not score or celebrate?

The bottom line is that this game was not fair or ideal for either team. The #USWNT shouldn’t even have to consider not playing & celebrating 100%. Thailand shouldn’t be competing from such a disadvantaged position (support & funding). Both did their best given the situation

For those tweeting me about this not being a good advert for women's football. Folks it's Thailand, with the greatest respect. They're giving as best as they can. It's also the job of #USA to win, not to make football more comforting for you.

13-0 to USA is the final score. Felt Thailand were a bit unlucky not to get a point, but if you don’t take your chances….. #WWC2019
