One commenter said, \u201cThat\u2019s just so sad. That child really admired her, to ask for an autograph. She\u2019s a classic narcissist.

During a recent Women\u2019s World Cup match, she was seen laughing after missing a crucial penalty, which angered football fans. Rapinoe later explained that her reaction was due to shock because she rarely missed penalties.<\/p>\n<p>Megyn Kelly, a former television host, also criticized Rapinoe earlier this month, stating that she had \u201cpoisoned\u201d the U.S. women\u2019s national team. Kelly referred to Rapinoe\u2019s reluctance to sing the national anthem and accused her of influencing the team negatively. Rapinoe\u2019s actions and statements have generated divided opinions among sports fans and the public.<\/p>\n<p><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-19186\" src=\"https:\/\/newstopic91.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/dm-2-164x300.webp\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 164px) 100vw, 164px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newstopic91.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/dm-2-164x300.webp 164w, https:\/\/newstopic91.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/dm-2.webp 330w\" alt=\"\" width=\"164\" height=\"300\" \/>Photo Credit:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ABCNetwork\/status\/1149142278910304259\">ABC\/Twitter<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>As Rapinoe continues to be a polarizing figure in the world of sports, her behavior in the viral video has ignited further debate about her actions and their impact on her reputation.<\/p>\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1149142278910304259&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fnewstopic91.com%2F2024%2F05%2F30%2Fvideo-of-megan-rapinoes-interaction-with-young-fan-sparks-outrage-4%2F&amp;sessionId=e107a684189221bfe830cce6f9e5c5f7f7587f9e&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1149142278910304259\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Sources:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/femail\/article-12384061\/Megan-Rapinoe-sparks-fury-ignoring-young-fan-signs-football-resurfaced-footage-tennis-bad-boy-Nick-Kyrgios-agree-shes-diabolically-arrogant.html\">Daily Mail<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Megan Rapinoe, the American football star, is facing criticism online after a video from the 2019 EPSY awards in Los Angeles resurfaced.
