Abby Wambach misses penalty for USWNT
Oh noooooooo
Erich Schlegel-USA TODAY Sports
Oh dear, Abby Wambach. The United States striker has been the team's most clutch player for a decade, but the USWNT are still tied 0-0 with Colombia in the Round of 16 of the women's World Cup because of this awful penalty miss.
Here’s the foul itself. The referee made the right decision to show a straight red card -- this was clearly denial of a clear goal-scoring opportunity -- but the contact appeared to be outside the box. So, Wambach missing is justice for Colombia.
(h/t @benjata for the foul Vine and @gifdsports for the miss.)
