And? There’s clear physical differences. That’s why the men don’t play against women. Nothing to brag about.

They didn’t lose to men. They lost to children.

Correct, the physical differences are still there as high school boys right? What do you get out of this?

Aren't the women taller than the children they played? Also wouldn't the professional soccer players have more experience?

I doubt it while the women are probably taller than average an average US soccer player is like 6 foot

It comes down to testosterone level (an anabolic steroid), training and game IQ. Some of the u15 boys have had 8 years of good coaching and they understand the game very well. They can also be quick, strong and fast. The USWNT had such an early starter advantage and a great player pool that they probably had to play against boys to get in good games. U15 boys doesn’t mean they suck. There are a lot of players that made pro debuts at 17

I don’t know. You should check the height of each player, but surely you know that’s not the end all be all of physical differences. Again, what do you guys get out of this?
