You win as a team and lose as a team. No blame should ever go to the goalie as it takes many others to let it by before it gets to her. Yes I am a goalie mom, but not of a 2026 but of a girl playing in college. The goalie bashing here is awful. Be an adult and stop living your lives through your athlete. They need your support and their mental health especially at this age is #1. So even if a goalie isn't having a great day (perfect example Taylor Moreno in UNC semi-finals) they aren't a bad goalie but need good coaching to recognize the struggle and build that defense in front of them during that game.
