Tennis star Nick Kyrgios has joked that he’s finally agreed with Piers Morgan after a clip reappeared showing USWNT legend Megan Rapinoe ignoring a young supporter.
The video posted by Morgan, which dates from the ESPY awards in 2019, shows Rapinoe signing a soccer ball for a young fan, but she does not appear to be interacting with the youngster, and it has been pointed out that she is not making contact visual with him.
Doesn’t even look at him. Devilish arrogance. pic.twitter.com/eEG4VbbmwB

Morgan slammed Rapinoe on Twitter, saying the USWNT star was showing a “evil arrogance” not looking at the child. He then received unlikely support from tennis star Nick Kyrgios, who tweeted in response: “ Hahahahahaha, one thing Piers and I agree on.”
Rapinoe is set to retire from football after her USWNT career ended in agony after Sweden were knocked out of the FIFA Women’s World Cup in the round of 16. Indeed, the 38-year-old was one of three American players to miss their shot on goal in the fateful session, prompting a wave of criticism for the defending champions.
