USWNT skipper Lindsey Horan took a veiled swipe at former coach Vlatko Andonovski following the team's early exit from the World Cup.
USWNT were knocked out in round of 16for his tactics as she claimed that it was the players who decided among themselves to play the way they eventually played in the round of 16 clash against Sweden and stated that they could have displayed similar performances in earlier stage of the tournament.
