An engagement, a new club team, and now? The soccer honor of a lifetime was confirmed Friday as head coach Vlatko Andonovski picked the Golden native as one of two captains along with teammate Alex Morgan for the United States Women’s National Team’s FIFA Women’s World Cup squad. The tournament will be held in Australia and New Zealand from July 20-Aug. 20.
A veteran of the 2019 World Cup-winning team, she has captained the U.S. on nine occasions and first wore the armband in October 2021 for her 100th national team appearance. She’s made 127 appearances overall, scoring 27 goals. Horan recently made a permanent transfer to play for Olympique Lyonnais in France after spending the last two seasons there on loan from the Portland Thorns, where she helped win three trophies, including a Women’s UEFA Champions League in 2022.
“We have a lot of leaders on this team among the young players and the veteran players, and among those, Lindsey and Alex have vast experience in big games, and they understand what it takes to win at the highest levels,” Andonovski said in a statement. “They are ultimate professionals and understand all the factors that go into having a united and motivated team. I know they will represent us well on and off the field at the World Cup.
