‘You don’t get sick of winning trophies!’ - USWNT captain Lindsey Horan explains relentless drive that sees her targeting even more medals in 2024

England

The 29-year-old midfielder, who has over 140 caps for her country, recently <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/uswnt-lindsey-horan-lifts-first-ever-concacaf-w-gold-cup-victory-over-brazil/blt0b6135a44eab9334" target="_blank">lifted the W Gold Cup as skipper</a> after <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/scenes-uswnt-stars-alex-morgan-sophia-smith-chug-champagne-w-gold-cup-trophy-winning-habit/blt90e7367b9f563e68" target="_blank">netting the winning goal in a final showdown with Brazil</a>. That success has got the United States back on track following a forgettable showing at the 2023 Women’s World Cup.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Horan, as a World Cup winner with countless trophy triumphs to her name with club and country, could be forgiven for <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/captain-america-lindsey-horan-explains-why-skippering-uswnt-becoming-easier-inspiring-youngsters-w-gold-cup-glory/blt2a1a4ee5f3947253" target="_blank">slowing down in a career-long pursuit of success</a>. She says there is no chance of that happening, telling FIFA’s <a href="https://www.fifa.com/fifaplus/en/tournaments/olympicgames/paris2024/articles/lindsey-horan-interview-usa-lyon-paris-2024 " target="_blank">official website</a> of ambition that will never burn out: “For me, the desire doesn't stop. Your career is short, so you just want to do as much as possible and be the best you can be. You don't get sick of winning, you don't get sick of the trophies, you don't get sick of the time with your team-mates and playing in front of such incredible fans. I just love the game. I want to keep getting better and keep entertaining.”

WHAT HORAN SAID

Horan has <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/made-it-known-uswnt-captain-lindsey-horan-reveals-message-exciting-young-stars-elite-challenge-set/blt400f7efde75d876b" target="_blank">one obvious target for the rest of the calendar year</a>, with the USWNT squad now readying themselves for the Olympic Games in Paris. Horan helped to land a bronze medal in 2021, but her <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/amazing-coach-emma-hayes-allowing-uswnt-dream-olympic-glory-arsenal-star-emily-fox-gold-medal-target-paris-games/blt1e58f0d7b46ba964" target="_blank">sights are now locked on gold</a>. She added on bettering efforts from Tokyo: “It was really cool to stand on that podium, but we wanted so much more. This team always strives for greatness, and we're winners. We want to go for gold. The World Cup is obviously the pinnacle, but winning a gold medal at the Olympics… that's something that you just can't describe. It would be a huge moment in my career.”

THE BIGGER PICTURE

The USWNT <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/carli-lloyd-hails-gritty-uswnt-gold-cup-lindsey-horan-stepping-up-issues-strange-emma-hayes-warning/bltd34a5d5f37c6caa5" target="_blank">will have current Chelsea boss Emma Hayes at the helm</a> by the time they head to France, with Horan preparing to grace that competition in a country that she knows well as she currently plies her trade for Lyon.
