I absolutely believe she tried to lose on purpose. I can picture her tiny blue haired head thinking "USA won the last two World Cups. Two African nations are still alive. I will help even the playing field because I am Megan Rapinoe, Super-Liberal". They even made a Nike commercial about her as a cartoon super hero. She works for the WEF. No doubt her performance was a nod to her overlords who want to see America weak.
