US president, Donald Trump has criticised US women’s team captain, Megan Rapinoe on Twitter, telling her not to “disrespect our country”.
This is coming after Megan said she would not visit the White House if they win the World Cup.
According to Trump, she should win before she talk and never disrespect the White House including the country’s flag.
He later added he would invite the team whether they “win or lose” in France.
Trump said: “Megan should never disrespect our Country, the White House, or our Flag, especially since so much has been done for her and the team.
“Be proud of the Flag that you wear. The USA is doing GREAT.”
