President Barack Obama Calls Abby Wambach the GOAT in Congratulatory Twitter Message

Even the President has to give it up for Wambach.

On Wednesday, Abby Wambach will take the field for the final time when the U.S. Women's National Team takes on China in New Orleans, La. Wambach will put an end to a career which includes 255 international caps, a record 184 goals, two Olympic gold medals and a World Cup trophy. It has been an impressive run for Abby and it's one which President Barack Obama thinks is deserving of a G.O.A.T. title.

Earlier today, Obama sent a message to Wambach through his Twitter account and anointed her as the greatest of all time.

Congrats on an amazing career, Abby.
