Megan Rapinoe was the star of the tournament, scored the opening goal in a 2-0 victory in the championship, and earned the Golden Ball as the World Cup’s best player.

After the big win, she paid tribute. 

The pink-haired US Women’s soccer team captain used a quote from the slain artist’s 2018 track “Hussle and Motivate” in an Instagram post that shows her smiling as she holds the Golden Ball and Golden Boot awards.

“Ain’t really trip on the credit, I just paid all of my dues. I just respected the game, now my name all in the news,” the quote reads.

The U.S. will most likely choose to run it back at the 2020 Olympics. 

Definitely should be worth watching.
