Episode Notes

Abby Wambach and Heather O’Reilly relive the record-setting match vs Korea Republic on June 20, 2013 in which Wambach passed the legendary Mia Hamm as the all-time leading goal-scorer in international soccer. The longtime teammates and friends caught up on life, reflected on their careers and reminisced about that memorable night. Wambach entered the match needing a hat trick to break Hamm’s international scoring record of 158 career goals. She made history – and then some – scoring four goals in the first half.
