So as someone who only watches this every 4 years does Dunn not normally play D? She looks great on the attack but has not been so good on D.

She won the Golden Boot in NWSL a few years ago, so no she's not naturally a defender.

she is not a defender by trade, so yes. many people think Ellis is dumb for playing her there, Ellis states she is one of the most versatile players in the entire pool.

That one attacker they had was amazing though. #11? She was unstoppable.

Losing to an extremely good team that's also the host country wouldn't be nearly as bad as losing to Spain today.

Apart from Naeher's early mistakes, usa were decently solid at the back. Only two shots were allowed

Still not exactly a confidence inspiring performance though

Sure, but after 4 matches I don't think a whole lot has changed. It is a close match up that either team could win, with France probably being just about favorites. Not sure what would have changed after today's performance.
