Abby Says Goodbye

The final match of the Victory Tour against China PR on Dec. 16 in New Orleans didn’t produce the result that everyone wanted, but the 255th and final game in the historic career of Abby Wambach was more about honoring one of the greatest players in the history of international soccer and her tremendous impact on the game, her teammates and the fans. The video features an original song written for Abby by actress/singer/songwriter Kelley Jakle titled “Best Goodbye.”

4 years later and why am I crying I have no clue

[@captainptmb334]

You and me both...

[@Emily.Land1]

Same

[@jesseemullen]

Same

[@rubiattfield1783]

Same

[@ly9386]

Still crying

[@Comp3630]

She has left her mark on the game and she will be missed dearly. Farewell Abby and thank you.

[@uswntvids3908]

When I first found out that Abby retired, I nearly cried. 😥😓 We will miss her lots.

[@isohungry]

Nah

[@kirstieb8025]

read her book. she had a love / hate for ⚽️. alcoholism.

[@naomigibb3574]

being in that stadium when she walked off the field for the last time was absolutely gut-wrenching

[@hollij30]

Yes, but we were glad to be there to see it!

[@aliyahb.9047]

Fun fact: Abby’s sister, Laura, is my science teacher. They look so much alike!

[@michaelvanzyl2030]

Aliyah B. Really?

[@aliyahb.9047]

Michael van Zyl Yep! She told us on the second day of school that Abby was her sister and I was super shocked. So were the other kids.

[@amirarojas1109]

OH MY GOD YOU ARE SO LUCKY!

[@joshseidel9772]

That’s so cool

[@richardnixon1893]

My brother’s best friends aunt’s friends’enemy’s twin’s grandfather’s sister’s crush’s maid actually met the local mailman

[@ILOVEWakingUpInVegas]

damn, right in the feels.

[@mishmosh7381]

When Messi or Ronaldo will retire this is more or less what'll look like. The score of their final game will mean nothing, as it will be more about what the two did for the football community. Wambach will not be forgotten for a long time, and her record of goals will not be surpassed anytime soon

[@mohammadidreeschoudhry1790]

Monsieur_Watermelon24 yes

[@joaquinarchivaldoguzmanloe1073]

Monsieur_Watermelon24 lol dont compare messi ronaldo to her

[@midnytemassacre]

El Chapito He just did. Get over it.

[@simonthaow8993]

Monsieur_Watermelon24 wambach soccer games win

[@JudithSanchez-ht6jn]

Monsieur_Watermelon24 you right, Ronaldo is overrated and Messi too. They play for money not even for their countries less for the game. Money 💴

[@StonerVolk]

Thank god I found this before putting make up on. Here come the tears. We love you Abby.

[@Cjaystackz]

So many talented strikers in the team right now. Morgan, Press, ARod and in the next world cup we might see the bright upcoming star Mallory Pugh

[@amc4805]

Heath*

[@soccerskyler1872]

Mallory Pugh is amazing

[@annaemmons3490]

Coming true

[@dakotahowe2610]

[@irismelendez2339]

[@elliemason1071]

[@forpeaceandcalm4649]

[@Melissa-rb6ct]

Bruh nooo not Morgan 😭😭 I don’t even wanna think about her

[@captainptmb334]

That goal against Brazil in the 122nd minute is probably my all-time football moment. I cheered so loud the neighbors' dog ran under their bed.

[@vader4418]

[@T.R.75]

all these years later, still miss watching Abby play. she was one of the first reasons i found the womens game, and fell in love with it. Pinoe to Wambach was magic (especially the extra time goal vs Brazil in '11). first Abby, now Pinoe, Marta, all gone or leaving. left the game better than they found it. legends all. damn, im getting old.

I'm watching this in 2019 and I miss u being on the team you were a big part in the us team

[@sarahcagle971]

In the summer of 2011, I was walking for exercise, a very hot, hot day and I saw a car stop, open the door, and put out a puppy. I was aghast as they drove off. I gathered her up and took her home. My dad, a soccer coach and a former college player, said we could keep her. What should we name her? I asked. Without hesitating he said, "Abby." Yes, named for Ms. Wambach. Happy to report that 8 years later our little Abby is doing well.

[@margotobrien3269]
