U.S. Women's National Team Mother's Day Surprise

It was the ultimate Mother's Day surprise as U.S. Soccer reunited the U.S. Women's National Team members with their moms over Mother's Day Weekend. On Saturday night, as the team prepared for a send-off game vs. Ireland (in San Jose, CA) in advance of the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup, an ordinary team meeting and dinner took a dramatic turn as the featured guests were revealed to be non-other than the players' moms.

Then, on Sunday during the U.S.A. vs. Ireland game (at Avaya Stadium in San Jose, Ca) a unique breaking of tradition took place. Rather than taking the field with youth soccer members to enter the stadium, the players walked out with their moms in a heartwarming tribute to Mother's Day and moms across America.

I’m crying for so many reasons. I feel bad for the people that didn’t have a mom to come, as they are dead, not willing, etc. I’m so happy that they were able to reunite with their moms. I love my mom so much and I can’t imagine the world without her.

Blown away (and full of tears) watching the girls walked on field by their moms. I can't imagine a prouder moment as a #soccermom  myself.

At 1:50, hearing the announcer and watching the moms on the field with their daughters? Chills & tears. #SoccerMom
