LIVE: U.S., England meet in World Cup semifinal

Megan Rapinoe is not in the starting lineup for the United States' semifinal match against England on Tuesday.

Christen Press has replaced Rapinoe for the 3 p.m. ET kickoff. Lindsey Horan is also starting in place of Sam Mewis.

Rapinoe did not participate in pregame warm-ups.

The decision to put Rapinoe on the bench was not disciplinary, according to a U.S. Soccer spokesperson.

Rapinoe has scored five goals in four matches during the Women's World Cup, including a pair of goals in both knockout matches for the Americans so far. She shares the lead for most goals at the World Cup with three others, including teammate Alex Morgan and England's Ellen White.

Rapinoe has also drawn attention from the release of a months-old video of her saying, "I'm not going to the f---ing White House" should the United States win a second straight Women's World Cup.

For England, Carly Telford has replaced Karen Bardsley as the starting goalkeeper. Bardsley has a hamstring injury.

Bardsley had not allowed a goal in England's last four matches in France.

Toni Duggan and Fran Kirby also are not in the starting lineup, replaced by Beth Mead and Rachel Daly.

Information from the Associated Press was used in this report.
