During a nostalgic “Throwback Thursday” segment shared on YouTube by the Olympics, Carli Lloyd recounted her extraordinary strike that secured Olympic gold against Brazil during extra time back in 2008. “I executed it flawlessly, and it dipped right beneath their goalkeeper,” she reflected on scoring this pivotal moment.
Lloyd expressed immense pride over this achievement: “It was undoubtedly one of my greatest experiences.” After retiring from international play in 2021, she stands as America’s all-time leading scorer within Olympic history, netting ten goals throughout various tournaments and earning numerous accolades during her career.
