The United States won a record-extending fourth women’s World Cup with a 2-0 victory over the Netherlands on Sunday - with second-half goals from Megan Rapinoe and Rose Lavelle confirming their status as the leading power in the women’s game.
After scoring in the final, Rapinoe was handed the Golden Ball as the best player in France and the Golden Boot as the leading scorer.
And she used her already gigantic platform to double down on her role as American campaigner-in-chief, reviving her calls for improved pay and conditions for female players.
