Hope Solo has been suspended as goalkeeper for the U.S. Women’s National Team. The suspension is effective immediately.
The suspension is over an incident that occurred at a league training camp in Carson, California.
As a result of the suspension, Solo has been released from training camp and will miss the USA’s matches in Europe on Feb. 8 in France and Feb. 13 in England. “During our current National Team camp, Hope made a poor decision that has resulted in a negative impact on U.S. Soccer and her teammates,” said U.S. Women’s National Team head coach Jill Ellis. “We feel at this time it is best for her to step away from the team.” h/t ussoccer
There’s a chance that Solo will not be allowed to rejoin the team pending review by U.S. Soccer.
