Two-time U.S. Soccer Player of the Year Julie Ertz has retired from soccer after a 10-year career that included back-to-back Women's World Cup titles.
Ertz, 31, had already hinted at her retirement at this summer's World Cup after the United States fell to Sweden on penalties in the Round of 16, tearfully telling reporters it was likely her final match wearing the team crest. She made it official Thursday.
But she appeared in a pair of exhibition matches against Ireland in April and signed with Angel City, working her way back into shape. Ertz played at center back in this year's tournament, filling in for injured veteran Becky Sauerbrunn.
