Women’s U-20 World Cup gives us another incredible goal

Nutmeg and a rocket from 25 yards? That’ll do.

The Women's U-20 World Cup is the spot for all of the great goals, apparently. On Wednesday, France was lighting the highlight world on fire and on Saturday, it was England's turn. Well, it was Beath Mead's turn.

The goal is even better if you imagine Mead saying “GOTCHA” after she nutmegs the defender.

Maybe Canada is home to super cool soccer magic, in which case next summer’s Women’s World Cup is going to be awesome. Or maybe this is just what the next generation of women’s soccer looks like, in which case every Women’s World Cup from now on is going to be awesome. Either will suffice.
