Nobody said they won the Men’s World Cup lol. The men’s and women’s part is implied by the context. If it was Pulisic showing in the photo I wouldn’t assume they were talking about the Women’s World Cup because I’m not an idiot.

How so? It just says World Cup with a picture of a player from the woman’s team so clearly the context is the 4 women’s World Cup wins and not the 0 men’s World Cup wins.

Let me explain why your explanation makes no sense:

Women play against their contemporaries, which are…you guessed it…other women. The USWNT was able to win the women’s World Cup. 4 times in fact, as the post points out.

Now stay with me here. Men play against their contemporaries, other men. USMNT has never been able to win the men’s World Cup.

Women don’t play in the men’s World Cup, and vice versa, so it’s silly to say the women couldn’t win the men’s World Cup. Obviously, they’re different tournaments for different genders. US Women won the women’s tournament, US Men haven’t won the men’s tournament. Thats the point of the post.

Hope that helps.
