USA, Mexico Submit Bid To Co-Host 2027 Women\'s World Cup 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri Dec 8, 2023 6:20 pm

The United States and Mexico submitted a joint bid Friday to co-host the 2027 Women\'s World Cup.

The United States, Mexico and Canada are co-hosting the 2026 Men\'s World Cup.

\"This is a pivotal time for women\'s soccer,\" said U.S. Soccer president Cindy Parlow Cone. \"The U.S. and Mexico are in a unique position to host a World Cup that will leverage the same venues, infrastructure, and protocols used for the Men\'s World Cup just a year prior.

\"This will not only unlock the economic potential of women\'s soccer, it will send a message to young players around the world that there is no limit to what they can achieve.\"

And only if USA and Mexico cohost, can “they will not only unlock the economic potential of women's soccer, it will send a message to young players around the world that there is no limit to what they can achieve?”

I feel like the US Soccer President is tossing this phrase around pretty casually. Like,

“Thanks for delivering my pizza so quickly. You are sending a message to young people around the world that there is no limit to what they can achieve.”
