Our first World Cup match of the trip was England vs. Haiti in Brisbane's exquisite Suncorp Stadium. The English fans showed up in force to watch their side take down Haiti 1-0.
After the match, we worked our way as close to the field as the Lionesses took their victory lap. Lotte Wubben-Moy must have got word from her manager that we were there. She spotted us in the crowd, stopped to switch out of her game jersey, and ran over to hand it to us. All the English girls around wanted to know why we Americans got this honor. Well, we explained, this world class defender used to train Clara when she needed extra money as a poor college student.
