Last year, Christine Sinclair and Emily Menges revealed that their time on road trips, which often casts them as roommates, is occupied by the long-time Portland Thorns FC pair tearing through episodes of Friends on Netflix as the duo await their next opponent. For two months this year, though, Sinclair’s time on the road came away from Menges, with the Canadian national team’s captain traveling with other teammates during the 2019 World Cup in France.
On Tuesday, at the end of Sinclair’s media availability, ThornsFC.com caught up with the Portland icon about life without her club roommate, the reunion she had with her dog, Charlie, upon coming home, and … one serious soccer topic that’s far less interesting than “Sinc’s” dog.
