JJ Watt's wife, former professional soccer star Kealia, finds silver lining in 'sad' USWNT World Cup loss

The USWNT had a disappointing loss in this year's Women's World Cup, but Kealia Watt, a former soccer player and wife of J.J. Watt, says they'll be back and better than ever.

The United States Women's National Team was the favorite to win this year's Women's World Cup, which would have been their third straight.

But after poor performances in the group stage, the writing was on the wall for an early exit, and that's exactly what came to pass.

Sweden knocked out the United States in the Round of 16 after penalty kicks, stunning the soccer world.

The loss marked the first time in Women's World Cup history that they did not make the semifinals and the first time since 2007 that they did not make the final.

It may have been a disappointing end for the United States, but Kealia Watt, a former professional women's soccer player and the wife of NFL legend J.J. Watt, found a positive in the negative.

"It’s such a powerhouse organization, but I think it shows how good all these countries are getting and all these players that are developing, they’re putting money into their programs now. I think that women’s soccer is just getting really big across the world," Watt told Fox News Digital in a recent interview.

She's not wrong. Their first match against Vietnam was one of the most-watched Women's World Cup group stage contests on English-language television.
