The U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team has recently reconfigured its roster for the upcoming World Cup without forward Megan Swanson. Swanson, who had been a key player for the team since her debut in 2015, was unable to participate due to an injury.
Swanson has been a major contributor to the team’s success over the years. She has scored 32 goals in her international career, and was a key part of the team’s 2015 World Cup victory. Her absence from the team is a significant loss, and the team will have to adjust without her.
The team has been preparing for the World Cup since January, and Swanson’s injury has forced them to make some changes. The team has added two new forwards, Mallory Pugh and Carli Lloyd, to the roster in order to make up for Swanson’s absence. Pugh is a rising star in the sport, having scored four goals in her first five international appearances. Lloyd is a veteran of the team, having scored more than 100 goals in her international career.
The team is also relying on its experienced veterans to help lead the way. Alex Morgan, Tobin Heath, and Kelley O’Hara are all expected to be key contributors for the team in the upcoming tournament. All three have been integral parts of the team’s success in recent years, and their experience will be invaluable in helping the team adjust to Swanson’s absence.
The U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team is one of the favorites to win the World Cup this year, and they will be looking to defend their title from 2015. While Swanson’s absence is a significant loss, the team is confident that they can still be successful without her. With experienced veterans and talented newcomers, the team is ready to make a run at the title once again.
