The new video is part of the finale of Fullscreen's docu-series Kicking Score, which launched Aug. 3 just ahead of the Summer Games.
The series follows three of the best female athletes in the world — Solo, Megan Rapinoe and Crystal Dunn — off the field and on the high stakes road to Rio.
Here's the description of the final episode:
It’s all come down to this! Hope, Megan and Crystal arrive in Rio with high expectations and Olympic medal dreams. But reality sets in as the competition for the Gold is fierce. After a heartbreaking loss to Sweden, Hope makes the statement “heard ‘round the world,” literally — and the fall out she feels, as well as the rest of the team — has powerful consequences. In the end, Hope’s suspension and contract termination could sideline her career, but with renewed vigor and determination, she, Crystal and Megan will continue to pursue their dreams and their fight for equality on and off the field.
