Episode 197: Carli Lloyd Special

Women’s World Football Show, Episode 197 – Features Soundbites from USWNT Legend Carli Lloyd; USWNT Head Coach Vlatko Andonovski and Defender Andi Sullivan

Tuesday, October 26, 2021  USWNT hosts Korea Republic at Allianz Field in St. Paul, Minnesota. It was a historical night because it was the final game in a USA jersey for Carli Lloyd.

With a career that spanned 17 years, 315 caps (second most capped player in world soccer history behind Kristine Lilly), and 134 international goals, (third in USWNT history and fourth all-time in world history), it’s only fitting that we dedicate a whole episode dedicated to Carli Lloyd – through her own words.

This episode gathers highlights of Carli’s final press conferences with the national team and soundbites of her WWFShow interview from 2015. What was her first camp like? How will she influence the next generation of players? What’s next? Carli answers all these questions and more. If you’re a Carli Lloyd fan, you will relish this episode! If you’re not a fan, you will be after listening to Episode 197.
