(6/6) For now, despite the grow­ing out­side pres­sure, Hope Solo will play in the team’s next sched­uled match vs. Trinidad and Taba­go on Oct. 15. ESPNW.com’s Kate Fagan (though she made it clear she does not equate cas­es such as Ray Rice’s to Solo’s) writes, “The euphemism of ‘per­son­al sit­u­a­tion’ down­plays the real­i­ty of what is hap­pen­ing, which is that Solo is fac­ing charges of domes­tic vio­lence against two fam­i­ly mem­bers, includ­ing a minor. Anger knows no gen­der, nor does domes­tic vio­lence. U.S. Soc­cer needs to sus­pend Solo, and it needs to do so imme­di­ate­ly.” AP PHOTO
