Any good attacker will always beat a defender who's face-marking you.
From Abby Wambach
I have a unique ability to predict the flight of the ball, and my teammates have a unique ability to find me.
Any little touch a defender can make on me when I'm in the air literally moves me. On the ground, I can use my muscle, but in the air, it's harder to fight that off.
I have never once dribbled the whole field and scored a goal by myself.
When I look in the mirror, I don't see a person who's made the kind of impact that Mia Hamm made on the game. She's still my idol, the greatest player and the greatest teammate. She achieved so much in so many different ways. What she did for women's soccer can't be measured.
If you break an individual record, it's because of the greatness that comes before you.
I would trade all the individual awards I've won for a World Cup.
When I was really young, the women's national team wasn't on a grand media stage, so my role models were male basketball and male American football players.
I don't care how many championships you've won or how many records you've broken - if you've had a hand in pushing forward not only a game but women in sport's movement, then I think that's pretty darn good.
I would love to be a mum if I'm blessed to have children. My wife and I have those plans.
