USWNT and NWSL Jess McDonald spoke exclusively to
90min about the inherent pressures of being a female athlete and experiencing peak international stardom during the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
McDonald began her career with the Chicago Red Stars in 2010 prior to signing with Melbourne Victory FC in the Australian W-League. She recorded 13 appearances with the Australian side, scoring seven goals to inspire a Grand Final run. She returned to the NWSL in 2014 to feature for Portland Thorns, and then played for Houston Dash and Western New York Flash before landing with the North Carolina Courage.
In a partnership with Always, McDonald has made it her mission to encourage girls to stay active and gain confidence by promoting her journey as a female athlete.
