RIO DE JANEIRO -- It started with Zika! taunts from the Brazilians and wound through the Amazon before a surprising exit for the United States.It ended with heartbreak for the hosts and first-time gold for Germany.The womens soccer tournament at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics had a little bit of everything -- and Hope Solo.The U.S. goalkeeper was the lightning rod of the tournament, irking fans in the South American nation when she posted a photo of herself covered with mosquito netting and armed with insect repellant on social media. Fans booed her mercilessly and hollered Zika! each time she kicked downfield.Then, when the three-time defending champion U.S. team fell on penalties after a 1-1 draw with Sweden in the quarterfinals, she caused a stir when she called the Swedes a bunch of cowards for bunkering defensively.Swedens coach Pia Sundhage, who led the U.S. team to gold medals in Beijing and London, replied by stating: Its OK to be a coward if you win.Solos comments drew a rebuke from her own federation and the International Olympic Committee. Even teammate Megan Rapinoe told NBC she was disappointed.Controversy aside, the early U.S. expulsion from the tournament was shocking. The Americans, ranked No. 1 in the world, were coming off a triumphant victory in the Womens World Cup last summer. They had won gold in all but one Olympics since the womens game joined the event in 1996.Carli Lloyd and Alex Morgan got off to good starts until a concerning draw against Colombia to cap the opening stage in Manaus, the Amazon city with moths the size of tennis balls.Sweden sent the Americans to their earliest Olympic exit ever in the very next match in Brasilia.Sixth-ranked Sweden would go on to bump Brazil in the semifinals -- again on penalties after a scoreless draw -- for a spot in the gold-medal match against old friend and rival Silvia Neids German team.The match at Rios iconic Maracana Stadium was Neids last as a coach. The two-tiime FIFA coach of the year had long planned to step down following the Rio Games. http://www.49ersrookiestore.com/49ers-Robbie-Gould-Jersey/. eating Sweden 2-1 for the gold sent her out in style.I dont have any words to describe it properly, but when you reach your goal it is just that moment of pure joy, said Neid, who will next work as a scout for the team. It doesnt matter if its a World Cup, European Championship or Olympic Games, this is what youve earned from your weeks and months of hard work.Sweden claimed the silver and Canada won its second straight Olympic bronze medal with a 2-1 victory over host Brazil in Sao Paulo. The Olympic tournament was spread over many of the same cities used in the 2014 mens World Cup.Canadian captain Christine Sinclair scored in the victory for her 165th career goal in her 250th appearance for the national team. It was only after the bronze medal was hung around her neck did she reveal that her father had passed away two months before the games.Brazils inability to medal was heartbreaking for Marta, the talented five-time FIFA world player of the year, who was finally getting the attention she has deserved from her native country.Earlier in the tournament, when the eventual gold-winning Brazilian mens team and star Neymar were struggling, some fans crossed out his name on their No. 10 jerseys and wrote in hers in magic marker. At one match, fans cheered her by chanting Better Than Neymar.While there is speculation the 30-year old Marta may retire -- she made her international debut at 16 -- she told reporters she hadnt made a decision just yet.But she did have a plea to soccer fans in Brazil as the womens game continues to struggle for backing from both its federation and the public.I ask the Brazilian people now, keep on supporting us, keep on supporting Brazilian womens football, she said. We need you so much.
