Carli Lloyd gives harsh appraisal of 'dysfunctional' USWNT setup: I would 'raise hell' over 2023 elimination
CBSN
On the latest episode of Kickin' It on CBS Sports Golazo Network, Lloyd doubles down on the 2023 World Cup criticism
Retired U.S. women's national team star Carli Lloyd is doubling down on her comments that the current squad lacks the championship-winning mentality and criticized the U.S. Soccer Federation for the direction the four-time world champions are heading in after disappointment at this year's Women's World Cup.
Lloyd's comments came during part one of a wide-ranging interview on Wednesday's episode of Kickin' It, CBS Sports Golazo Network's new weekly interview series. You can watch all episodes on demand on Paramount+. Part two airs Wednesday, Oct. 18 at 8 p.m. ET.
The two-time World Cup winner also detailed the struggles she experienced during her career and said that the federation stymied her growth on and off the field and created a "dysfunctional" environment for USWNT players. The bold remarks come as little surprise since Lloyd has developed a reputation for being outspoken, especially since retiring as a player and transitioning to a new role as a broadcaster.
