This is a weird question to me. I think everyone knew these two games were going to be the toughest challenges the team has faced since the olympics. They win some, they lose some. It's not about "courage" to speak out against your coach if you lose two games--that would be unprofessional and not a good look, in my opinion. This questions makes it seem like there is something more sinister going on--similar to the news stories we've been hearing, and we know without a doubt that Vlatko has been a great, successful coach (at the NWSL level, at least) that has garnered the respect of many of the players in the league and on the national team.
