Tokyo Olympics: Empty venues ‘not as much fun,’ says United States women’s football team captain Megan Rapinoe

United States women’s football team skipper Megan Rapinoe says playing in the empty venues is not as much fun. Rapinoe scored the penalty that took the United States into the Tokyo Olympics semi-finals.

Megan Rapinoe, who scored the crucial penalty against Netherlands, which took the United States into the Tokyo Olympics semi-finals, is not impressed with the lack of atmosphere at the games. After their quarter-final against the Netherlands ended 2-2 following extra-time, Rapinoe's spot-kick sealed a 4-2 shootout on Friday that set up a last-four meeting with Canada in Kashima.
