14 U.S. soccer players going to the WorldCup for the first time
. Her ability reminds many soccer pundits of a young Alex Morgan, who was also 21 when she made her World Cup debut, in 2011. She takes such comparisons in stride. “I’m not trying to be the next anyone,” says Smith, who won a national championship at Stanford before leaving to turn pro after her sophomore year. “I’m the first and only Sophia Smith.”Andi Sullivan looks on during the second half of an international friendly against Wales.
“She’s unpredictable,” says Andonovski. “You never know what she’s going to do. Is it going to be a one-on-one or one-on-two or give-and-go or a shot, right foot, left foot? She’s very, very hard to track or prepare for. Her creativity is very good and is something that will fit well with the group of forwards that she’s going to have around her.”Lynn Williams is defended by Esther Morgan and Jose Green of Wales during the second half of an international friendly.
Williams spoke to TIME by phone en route to Yankee Stadium a few days after the World Cup roster announcement in June. She was throwing out the first pitch before the New York Yankees-Baltimore Orioles game on a Friday night. Williams leads her NWSL team, NJ/NY Gotham FC, in goals this season, with seven, fourth highest in the league. She bounced the pitch to the third-base side of home plate. She’ll save the strikes for this summer.
