Walker Zimmerman, the oldest and the most experienced player in the U.S. Olympics team, spoke after the 4-0 loss to Morocco today. “You need to know what it means to represent the U.S., and that’s where I think we can improve,” the veteran said emotionally. “I think to some degree we’ve gotten away from that and feel like just because you are whoever you are, you can just get called in. That stuff pisses me off.” “I think guys need to, every time they put on the jersey I don’t care how talented you are, you need to play with pride.” “I think we have the characters to do it but we don’t always do it.” 😳 Zimmerman has been a part of the U.S. program since 2010, when he played for the U.S. U-18s. He now has 42 caps for the USMNT. The 31-year-old has played in the World Cup, Nations League, Gold Cup, and now the Olympics. [via Sam Borden] #walkerzimmerman #usmnt #ussoccer #paris2024 #teamusa
