After one win and one draw, the USWNT wants to prove their dominance in the Women's World Cup should not be questioned, and one of their top players to prove that is Hope Solo. After their draw against Sweden, the American team needs a win against Nigeria to avoid any surprises, which would include losing Group D's first place.
With that in mind, Solo shared a picture via her Twitter feed, giving fans the certainty she will be fired up for the all important match. The shot-stopper will want to dedicate a victory -and a first place finish- to her grandma, as she stated in the following tweet.
