'You're playing the heart and soul of each country' - USWNT legend Mia Hamm on the impact of the World Cup and U.S. Soccer's DNA

When Hamm observes the U.S. Men's National Team and the U.S. Women's National Team, she doesn't see what most people see. From the outside, many people know about the USWNT because of their history of dominance, while they tend to be less familiar with the USMNT. The men's best World Cup finish came in the tournament's inaugural year in 1930, when they finished third. Despite the USWNT winning four World Cup titles and five Olympic gold medals, Hamm sees more shared DNA between the two national teams than differences.
