(Not The Bee) Former players with the USA’s national women’s soccer team, the reigning World Cup champs, decided to play in an independent soccer tournament in North Carolina and faced off against Wrexham, a club from Wales owned by Ryan Reynolds with a bunch of older dudes, and it went exactly like you’d expect.
Here’s how it started:

And here’s how it went:
“What’s the worst that could happen? We lose 16-0 to Wrexham? We don’t care because we’re living, we’re being bold, we’re being brave.”@HeatherOReilly knows the result isn’t everything. 🙌

Oh yes, so stunning and brave!
The modified game only lasted 40 minutes – just under half the normal time of a match… imagine if they had gone a full 90 minutes!
These are some of the best female athletes in the world, and the men playing them weren’t even trying. Check out the highlights:
