The Women's World Cup Golden Ball winner has been chosen by Goal editors as the most influential figure in American soccer this year.
Carli Lloyd still can't wrap her mind around the events of July 5, 2015. Nearly six months later, she hasn't had much time for reflection.
There have been plenty of games since Lloyd scored three goals in the opening 16 minutes of the Women's World Cup final, leading the United States to a 5-2 win over Japan. Whether it's NWSL matches or victory tour friendlies, there has been no getting away from the field.
