Kristine Lilly On The Most Important Play In The History Of U.S. Soccer No One Remembers

Posted May 6, 2019
Kristine Lilly’s header against China in the 1999 Women’s World Cup final may be one of the most important plays in the history of U.S. Soccer, yet it’s rarely remembered in the same way as Michelle Akers’ dominance in ’91, Abby Wambach’s header against Brazil in 2011, Carli Lloyd’s hat trick against Japan in 2015 or Brandi Chastain ripping off her shirt in ’99.
