Posted Jul 6, 2019
Anson Dorrance led the United States to their first Women's World Cup triumph in 1991, but one of his former players is out to end American dominance this Sunday. Netherlands coach Sarina Wiegman spent one year with Dorrance's UNC team in 1989 and called playing alongside U.S. greats like Mia Hamm and Kristine Lilly "a football paradise."
