The two World Cup teams with the most out athletes are in the final

The U.S. and the Netherlands — the two teams with the highest number of out lesbian and bisexual players — will face off this Sunday in the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup finals, lending credence to U.S. co-captain Megan Rapinoe’s recent claim that, “You can’t win a championship without gays on your team.”

...

No matter who wins, the out players on the winning team will have successfully progressed through the world’s most challenging soccer tournament during Pride month.

Rapinoe told the media, “For me, to be gay and fabulous during Pride Month at the World Cup is nice.”
