The road to the 2016 Rio Olympic Games continues in Houston as various players prepare for the upcoming NWSL season and their national team commitments.
For Andressa and Poliana, this is more than just their first Olympic Tournament. This is an opportunity to win Olympic gold on home soil for a national team that has finished with the silver medal twice in two of the past three Olympic Games.
“Excitement is one way of describing it,” Andressa said. “It is tough to describe it because I have never experienced anything like this.”
Both players recently participated in the Algarve Cup, losing 2-1 to Canada in the final.
