The 26-year-old USWNT co-captain, in her second World Cup, delivers leadership, feisty play and clutch scoring
WELLINGTON, New Zealand — Lindsey Horan is setting a feisty tone for the United States at the Women’s World Cup.
The tie keeps the United States atop the Group E standings, in front of the Netherlands with a better goal difference, and in good position to advance to the knockout round. The Americans wrap up group play on Tuesday against Portugal. “I think the captain’s band has elevated what she already does,” defender Julie Ertz said about Horan. “I don’t think she needed to change or be anything, because we looked at her as a leader.”
Minutes later – after a calming reminder from Ertz that she was already carrying a yellow card from a previous match – Horan coolly scored on a header off Rose Lavelle’s corner kick. The Thorns loaned her to Lyon in 2022, and allowed her permanent transfer to the team in France’s top division in June.At the 2019 World Cup in France, Horan came off the bench for the team’s first two knockout round victories against Spain and the hosts. In the semifinal against England, she started and served Morgan the go-ahead goal.
