"It did in 2015," Leroux Dwyer responded. "The gold medal is in the cabinet."

He might suit up for the red, white and blue, but it was clear where Dwyer's allegiance was Wednesday when England lost to Croatia in the 2018 World Cup semifinals in Russia. He sent the tweet shortly after the defeat.

Leroux Dwyer -- who was born in Canada -- was a member of the USWNT's 2012 gold medal-winning Olympics squad and led the team to glory at the 2015 Women's World Cup in her native country.
World Cup Golden Ball winner Carli Lloyd backed up her teammate's witty retort by posting "hahaha" and including several laughing emojis on her Twitter account, quoting Leroux Dwyer's tweet.
