Hope Solo is tearful and profane in what appears to be a video of one of her initial reactions to a six-month suspension given to her by U.S. Soccer last week.
“Six-month suspension. No pay. Terminated contract, effective immediately. Terminated contract. Not just a suspension. It’s bull. … Seventeen f—— years, and it’s over,” Solo says to husband Jerramy Stevens.
Solo, a three-time Olympic gold medalist, was suspended until February by U.S. Soccer after she called Sweden’s national team “a bunch of cowards” following the Americans’ Rio Olympic quarterfinal loss to the Swedes.
