The 2023 Women’s World Cup kicked off on July 20, beginning a month of intense soccer action. On Aug. 6, however, Megan Rapinoe’s FIFA World Cup career ended with an unfortunate penalty kick miss. A shared video showed the athlete during the life-changing moment, which happened when the USWNT and Sweden were both scoreless through 90 minutes and through extra time.
Megan, who replaced Alex Morgan in the 99th minute, was selected for the fourth round of penalty kicks, and ended up blasting the ball over the right corner of the net before the USWNT was eliminated on penalty kicks three rounds later.
The midfielder and face of US Women’s Soccer previously announced she would retire after the end of the 2023 NWSL season in October. She then planned to finally have time to walk down the aisle with her fiancée, Sue Bird. Sue, 42, and Megan have been engaged for years and are super excited about walking down the aisle when the time comes. For those who don’t know anything about Megan’s No. 1 fan, read on to find out more.

The Seattle Storm picked Sue as the overall No. 1 pick in the WNBA Draft, and she would play with the team for twenty seasons. During that tenure, she would win the WNBA Championship four times and be named an All-Star 13-times.
In June 2022, she announced that she would retire from playing pro basketball following the 2022-23 season. Her career came to a close in September of that year when the Storm lost in the playoffs to the Las Vegas Aces.
