Hamm, Foudy to play last game agaist Mexico
In a match that probably will mark the final international appearances of Mia Hamm and Julie Foudy, the U.S. women's soccer team will play Mexico on Dec. 8.
The teams will meet in Carson, Calif., in the finale of a 10-game tour that followed their gold-medal win at the Athens Olympics.
Joy Fawcett, who has played every minute for the United States in the last three Women's World Cups and Olympics, is injured and will not play but plans to be at the game, the U.S. Soccer Federation said Monday.
"How many players get the chance to finish a career that spans 17 years of their life in front of their home fans where they grew up?" said Foudy, from Mission Viejo. "I have been thinking that there are not too many more times I'll be able to play with these women. I will miss competing and scrapping to win and just playing alongside such incredible people." |
