An elite US women’s soccer team participating in a global soccer tournament was absolutely crushed by a team full of retired male players, with the scoreboard reading 7-0 after just 20 minutes of play, and 12-0 when the 40-minute-long match was all said and done.
Both teams were taking part in a global 7v7 soccer tournament aptly named “The Soccer Tournament” and held in North Carolina. The Soccer Tournament boasted a $1 million grand prize to be doled out to the contest’s winning team and squads were staffed by current players as well as those past, who’d been considered national and global elites during the prime of their careers.

It looks like the men were being really good sports about this, that was nice to see.
From the beginning of time it's been known that in 99% of cases, in athletics, women cannot compete against men.
Just because you WANT it to be different, doesn't mean it will be.

Those women soccer players are morons, what else did they expect instead of an embarrassing loss to lower tier men players. John McEnroe caught a lot of shit 6 years ago for saying that Serena Williams, at the time the best women's tennis player in the world, would get beat by a man ranked in the lower hundreds. And to her credit, she knows men are far superior in tennis.

The US Women's team already proven this by being beaten by a team of 15-yo boys. What's worse, being beaten by a team of over-the-hill men, or by children?
Hahahahaha Just watching the vid is awesome. Just destroyed the women.

Why even have this match? Are the shitlibs so drunk on their own bullshit they thought the women would have a chance? They got embarrassed and I don't believe those men were even near playing at full potential.

This is surprising to no one, and I include anyone who would allow transgender men-to-women people to compete against women. They have a different agenda, but they know it isn't really fair.
Maybe there is a sport where women and men could compete fairly. Some would be tempted to say shooting sports, but we see the scores at Bianchi Cup, Camp Perry, or Olympic shotgunning.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Curling is very physical. Trap and skeet is another possibility.

God made man and woman for a reason. Stupid bitches think that somehow, they can equal men, when it comes to physical talent.

A combination of them?
One of the guys on the Wrexham Dragons is a 19 year old kid. I dunno about you, but I think my physical peak was about 22-26. His career is far from over yet.

12131,the women that play real competitive soccer know they can't compete with males but playing against better opponents makes them better whether they are male or female. You won't see any of the women on our national team say they can compete with the men.

I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean. The fact is that they can't compete with men.

No.
They can scream “HARD! HARD!” as well the men, though, but I don’t think you need a woman on the team to do that.

But is there really any training value when they get absolutely destroyed? That doesn't seem very effective.

Did the women ever even get a shot at the men's goal? The highlights didn't show any saves by the men's goal keeper.

But in the game in the OP, women players were talking trash, thinking they were going to beat the old, retired men.
