About Abby Wambach

Abby Wambach earned her retirement after winning two gold medals, a FIFA Women’s World Cup championship, and six US Soccer Athlete of the Year awards. She’s scored 184 career goals, and created global social media buzz when she scored the World Cup game winning goal and immediately ran to kiss her wife in the stands, starting the #LoveWins hashtag. Abby and her teammates even joined Taylor Swift on stage during her 1989 global tour—#squadgoals. She tweets to her 590k followers about global soccer news, women’s rights, and her favorite Bieber songs. Her 2016 memoir, Forward, has an adult and a YA edition to reach her younger fans.
