The USWNT players are continuing to show how prepared they are for the World Cup this summer, especially Tobin Heath.
She has been an impactful player for the Portland Thorns, as well as a media favorite after showing off just how crafty she is when she scored a goal without even looking.
Two out of two goals for Heath this NWSL season have been back-heels and we are so here for it.
