Alex Morgan is good at sports. In the USWNT's Olympic qualifier against Costa Rica Wednesday, Morgan scored a goal just 12 seconds into the match, the fastest goal in US Soccer history and one of the fastest goals of all time.

Add this to Morgan's impressive list of accomplishments. In scoring a goal just 12 seconds into the match, she managed something that has eluded the elite male players today.
The USWNT ended up winning the match 5-0. Morgan scored two goals and Crystal Dunn, Carli Lloyd and Christen Press also scored.
