she’s a girl! USA and Arsenal goalkeeper Matt Turner is assaulted by his teammates after kicking a miniature ball in the air to reveal the gender of his child after the USMNT win
Matt Turner and his wife add another member to their team – a girl.
The USA goalkeeper found out the good news after the national team’s 1-0 victory over El Salvador on Monday night.
The good vibes continued after the match as Turner kicked a small ball into the air revealing a cloud of pink.
Turner’s teammates jeered him after the reveal and threw water at the goalkeeper as the squad jumped up and down.
Turner married former NFL cheerleader Ashley Herron last year, and the couple already have a son, Easton.

Easton’s gender was also revealed in a similar fashion last year while Turner was still playing for the New England Revolution in Major League Soccer.
At the time, it was Ashley who kicked the ball after a game at Gillette Stadium to reveal a blue cloud before hugging Turner – with the goalkeeper injured.
Turner’s final revelation came after a successful night for him and the United States.
The 1-0 win booked the USMNT’s ticket to the semi-finals of the CONCAF Nations League, scheduled for June.
After a scoreless first half, second half player Riccardo Pepe continued his rich activity, scoring in the 62nd minute to give the home team a decisive lead.
The Americans finished top of the Group D standings of the first league (3-0-1, 10 points), ahead of El Salvador (1-1-2, 5 points).
By finishing first and second in the group, they each qualified for this summer’s CONCACAF Gold Cup.
