Megan Rapinoe and Ali Krieger knew they would meet in the NWSL final and they have the texts to prove it

USWNT duo Megan Rapinoe and Ali Krieger exchanged texts in September claiming their respective final games would be the NWSL final, and it came true.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Rapinoe, 38, and Krieger, 39, are both set to retire following the completion of the championship match. The USWNT duo – legends in their own respect – will look to end their storied careers with a bang, and with one more trophy to add to their cabinet.

WHAT NEXT FOR KRIEGER AND RAPINOE? The USWNT duo will meet in the NWSL Championship next Saturday on November 11, with Krieger’s Gotham taking on Rapinoe’s Reign.
