American Soccer Star Abby Wambach punched in the face by Colombian player...
Though the U.S. women's soccer team made easy work of Colombia in a 3-0 win that sealed its place in the quarterfinals, the victory came with a few bruises. The Colombians played a very physical game as they failed to keep up with their more skillful opponents, but Colombia's Lady Andrade took that to another level when she walloped U.S. striker Abby Wambach in the face during the first half.
Wambach was making a run down the middle of the pitch towards the box when Andrade appeared to deliberately hit her in the face (gif of the incident here), sending Wambach to the ground clutching her face. Since the referee didn't see the hit, play continued on for a few seconds while Wambach was still on the ground and in pain. When the official finally realized she was hurt and halted play, Wambach looked up at her with one eye shut and questioned why there was no call.
But Abby Wambach doesn't get mad, she scores goals. And in the 74th minute, after getting knocked down yet again, Wambach got back up and scored with a sliding toe pick between two defenders. She then celebrated her 140th international goal by carrying teammate Megan Rapinoe on her back and holding her bad eye open with one hand.
