Carmelina Moscato took the reins at Tigres Femenil a little more than a week ago and she already seems to understand, at least in part, the gravity of taking the helm of one of the biggest women’s soccer clubs in the Western Hemisphere. “Tigres Femenil wants to be the best club in the world, and wants to continue growing and building upon what it has already been achieved, and that matches my ambition,” she said during a press conference on Friday.
“I’d be lying to you to say that I fully understand” the pressure, but after pointing out her impressive résumé as a player with Canada’s national team and the pressures to win in the Olympics and World Cup, Moscato said she understood the very high expectations of the Incomparables.
