Megan Rapinoe, who scored on two penalty kicks in the Monday win, said of Friday's game: "Hopefully a complete spectacle, just an absolute media circus. I hope it’s huge and crazy, that’s what it should be. This is the best game. This is what everybody wanted. I think we want it. Seems like they’re up for it. You guys of course are up for it, and all the fans. Maybe it’ll be a pretty even split between the fans in the stadium. We’ve been traveling pretty deep in this World Cup.

"So I hope it’s just a total s---show circus," she added. "It’s going to be totally awesome. This is what everybody wants, and these are the biggest games that you kind of dream about as a kid."

France moved on to the quarterfinals by beating Brazil 2–1 on Sunday.
