A Pitch Invading Creep Goes After Alex Morgan
It wasn’t a particularly good day at the office for Alex Morgan and her club side the Orlando Pride on Saturday. The Pride were defeated 4-2 by the Houston Dash at BBVA Compass Stadium in Houston, Texas.
Orlando were seemingly done and dusted by the game's 80th minute, the Dash dominating proceedings and holding a comfortable 3-0 advantage. However, Morgan and the Pride were able to pull one back after a clever set piece routine allowed the USWNT striker to break through on goal. Her finish was characteristically precise, nestling into the far corner.

La guardameta rival está de pie sobre su área de 18 yardas mientras el árbitro da el pistoletazo de salida, presumiblemente muy emocionada por ponerse en marcha bajo el brillante sol de Missouri.

USWNT Lawsuit
We decided to do this for all of the little girls across the country and around the world who deserve to have a voice, and if we don’t leverage the voice we have, we are letting them down.
