The nine teams compete against the newly created Challenge Cup in a World Cup-like format for one month in Utah. However, the tournament will go without the biggest star in the league, without the most famous footballer in the world, without Megan Rapinoe. Her coach at Reign FC, Farid Benstiti, revealed to the French newspaper “Le Progrès”that the American would not participate. He regretted: «It’s a pity. Megan is important to the team, and we could have done something important with the club if she’d joined us. ” Fear of health The world footballer, Olympic champion and two-time world champion is obviously not the only player who refuses to participate. One reason for this is the concern about infection with the corona virus. On the other hand, the excess of a total of 25 games in a month on artificial turf without adequate preparation should also play a decisive role.
