National Team of American Women An ample career alex Morgan will end on Sunday when her final match for San Diego Wave FC after announcing a retirement (and pregnancy) Thursday’s world.
Morgan’s career will be reduced among the most comfortable in the long line of the USPTNT star. She has scored 123 international goals, which are found in American history. She won two World Cupearned Olympic Gold and bronze medals and won a more league professional championship next to a Champions League Title in Europe.
Despite this, her legacy from the field as an ally players and the proponent of equality is equally important.
By detailing the career at just a few moments is a foolish order. But here are 13 moments – in honor of the number she wore for the generation – which defined her decade and sexual play at the highest level.
13. First International Goal, 2010
Let’s start at the beginning of her older career: Morgan’s first international goal came in just a third hat, just over six months after her debut In the famous game “Snow Angels” in Juta.
Her first goal, 6. October 2010. years, there was a late equalizer against China To secure 1-1 Draw friendly. The time of the goal and combination with Abby Vampach (which helped) predict what should come. Morgan has already achieved the winning goal in the 2008 World Cup final. Year, which led people that it was at high level level. This was the first point for that.
12. NVSL Title, 2013
Morgan was originally assigned Portland Thorns FCSetting the most popular player in the game in what would quickly become one of the best female football markets in the world. Thorns’ season was far away from perfect, and Morgan was in late knee injury late in the campaign, but returned in time to play in the final knee carrier on the left leg, and she helped Christine SinclairAim to stop time to stop to be trained in inaugurally Nvsl Championship.
Morgan’s field weather in Portland was not fully famous, but this moment was another professional title in the same field, she won the first – VSTER NEW York Championship in 2011. years – in Rochester, New York.
11. Golden Cup Return, 2024
Yes, Morgan’s 2024. will be defined by a heart hole to cut off the Olympics, and then the narrow retirement, but the narration looked many different few months before that. The last hurricane Morgan with the USPTNT served as a microcosm of her merciless competitiveness. During the past two years, she replied to a number of challenges to their place on the national team.
Morgan did not achieve a goal for the USDT in almost a year, including the World Cup in 2023. years who crossed almost every American player, in round 16. Years. The US were at the time of the crossing while waiting for the arrival of the new Coach Emma Haies and Morgan crossed the front Concacaf v Gold CupSign that the end of the gleaming international career is close.
But Ma Ma Ma Mai Mai The day tore the day before opening, and Morgan packed the bag to drive a few hours and joined the team. It is the force from the bench in the opener against the Dominican Republic and bury the late sentence for his first goal in 363 days, re-establishment of oneself As a team. 9 At that tournament.
10. FIRST PRO CILT, 2011

Morgan has achieved the first professional goal 1. May 2011, only three games in her career with Flash (see that it is lost on the Internet.)
Morgan helped Flash to win the VPS name 2011. year, the last trophy ever lifted in the perilogical league. Among the video that still exists from that season, the goal of which she achieved in Boston is from that season.
9. Loan Lion, 2017
Lost in moving Morgan’s domestic and international career, its status is as a champion league winner.
Morgan joined Lion In January 2017. and he spent half the season there, getting his first taste of the football club. Her Stint with Lyon was short, and she was lubricated from the Champions League Final against Paris Saint-Germain Early due to the injury to the shin, but she still added a European crown to her list of honors.
It is equally important, Morgan made a move in Lyon to improve and mature his game in a less comfortable environment.
“My motivation is pretty simple,” she said To the players’ tribunic story At that time. “I hope this change helps my games to the second level. I hope it’s a unique style of play, just what I need and will help me find my next speed.”
Returned to NVSL to have one of her best scope, helping Orlando Pride – Franchise that effectively made Morgana from Portland’s state of its 2015 NVSL launch – make the playoffs first. The Jaunt in Europe helped Morgan to add a shade to his game, which was useful in the years followed.
8. USVNT Aim no. 100, 2019
Morgan’s 100th International Talli (Look here) has come against Australia In an important friendly text in the World Cup in 2019. years. She became just the seventh American woman who reached the sign of 100 goals.
It is an arbitrary number to some extent, safe, but it is a good reference measure for true Elit programs. At this point, Morgan was already in that conversation. Statistically, that further confirmed that.
7. Back from maternity leave to beat bronze, 2021
Morgan gave birth to his first child, Charlie’s daughter, in May 2020, at the height of the covalice-19 pandemic. By November, Morgan debuted Tottenham Hotspur In England in a short place whose goal is to return it to the answers.
The pandemic postponed the Olympic Games in the summer of 2021. years, giving Morgana shooting at another medal. She returned to the National Team for several weeks after that Debia with Tottenham, and she worked back to the line to help to let the bronze medal on Tokyo game in Tokyo.
6 Struggle from injury to win World Cup, 2015
World Cup 2015 is not exactly planned for Morgan due to the knee injury that led to the tournament. But she managed to be suitable enough to start to the end, and she once achieved, within 16 wins Colombia It wasn’t as comfortable as it was meant to be.
This was not the World Cup for Morgan, nor the name that she served as the main hero, but it was the first two world trophies with her playing central role.
5. Conquest NVSL Golden Boot, 2022
A valid critique of Morgan’s game was that she did not compile a really unforgettable club season as a professional. This was emphasized in 2022 years and allows Morgan to not retire without much “yes, but” about her club career.
Morgan scored 15 goals in 17 games for Wave San Diego to win NVSL gold movement and raised wave to playoffs, first for the NVSL NVSL expansion team. There was a beating four naked among her attitudes NJ / Ni Gotham FC early in season. It has only become a third player who scored four goals in the NVSL game.
Her League Form ordered the memory of the USDNT for the World Cup and the Olympic qualifications in 2022. years and the World Cup 2023. years, immediately after it seemed as if the team could move from it.
4. GOAL FOR PLAY-OF WORLD CUP, 2010
World Cup 2011 was a Catalyst of the current popularity of the USPTNT, but the 1-ranked team in the world has almost not qualified for the event. After a shocking loss of anxiety Mexico In qualifications, now they had to play playoffs with two legs against Italy for the last of 16 seats in the tournament.
Morgan only ruled for the American previous month, but it was already a clutch. The coax is deeply into the second-half stop time to give Americans a crucial aggregate of 1-0 before the next week is the front. The United States rejected Italy 1-0 in front of Chicago, and Americans progressed.
Morgan’s goal in Padua, Italy, has been reached in relative insecurity, but before the dolly currents. However, it is one of the many crucials in the recent history of the USPNT. Without 2011 year, the team growth does not follow. And without Morgan’s goal in Italy, may not have been the World Cups for 2011. year for the USDT.
3. Final performance of the World Cup, 2011
This is the beginning of the wider world that truly pays attention to Morgan. She took off the bench in the World Cup final without transfer not online first goal (Look here) Match against Japan After being free Saki Kumagaithat appeared as one of the best defender in the world. Morgan jumped off the ground to let the scream after scoring.
The wild end followed, with American and Japanese trade goals that ended 2-2 after 120 minutes before Japan overcome in the penalty.
Everyone remembers the tea party, because it was a thrown of demolition moment in the Semifinals of the World Cup. Morgan’s smooth goal (Look here) He served as a winner of the game – at her 30. Birthday, and in Lyon, where she played on a loan. The goal was Morgan’s Shesth of Tournament after another historical feat: she scored five goals in the victory 13-0 ThailandBinding records with one game for a player at the World Cup. Her efforts overshadowed greatly Megan RapinoeThe heroic, while won a golden boot and the golden ball for the best player, but Morgan was integral to the second real title of the World Cup for the players and the country. Morgan won a silver boot, finishing the bound Rapinope on the goals (six) and helps (three), but also playing more minutes. “Ohhh, that’s inside! Alex Morgan did it!” The call at the epic moment arlo White met the epic moment of what was fine her biggest match. Morgan encountered a moment with a goal that beat the game at 123. minutes to cement his star at Old Trafford, Manchester.
