Speaking in Miami Monday, Hughes - who became a global superstar for scoring the winning goal victory while bleeding from the loss of two front teeth - told the Daily Mail: 'They've got busy schedules, too. Everyone is giving us backlash for all the social media stuff today.

'People are so negative out there and they are just trying to find a reason to put people down and make something out of almost nothing.
'Our relationship with them, over the course of being in the Athletes' Village, I think we are so tight with their group.

'After we won the gold medal, we were in the cafeteria at 3.30am in the morning with them and we go from there, pack our bags and we're on the bus.

'People are so negative about things. I think everyone in that locker room knows how much we support them, how proud we are of them and we know the same way we feel about them, they feel about us.' 

Trump called the men's team on Sunday after their stunning 2-1 overtime win over Canada at the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics. He joked that he would 'be impeached' if he did not invite the women's team as well, who also took home gold at the Games.
