Megan Rapinoe slams decision to put two men’s matches the same day as World Cup Final: 'It's ridiculous, and disappointing, to be honest'
1 / 4APTOPIX France Netherlands Sweden WWCup SoccerSweden goalkeeper Hedvig Lindahl kicks a ball as the sun sets during the Women's World Cup semifinal soccer match between the Netherlands and Sweden at the Stade de Lyon outside Lyon, France, Wednesday, July 3, 2019. Megan Rapinoe considers Sunday to be the final insult.
"It's terrible," said former American midfielder Aly Wagner, now Fox's lead World Cup match analyst."It is so disturbing to me that the Women's World Cup does not have its own day to stand on its own and have a final to highlight these tremendous athletes and their work and their accomplishment. They wouldn't dream of doing it to the men.
The Women's World Cup final will start at 11 a.m. EDT on Fox, followed by the Copa America final at 4 p.m. EDT on ESPN+ and the CONCACAF final at 9:15 p.m. EDT on FS1. Telemundo, a sister network of NBC, has Women's World Cup and Copa America Spanish-language U.S. rights, while Univision has the Gold Cup.
