United States international and twice World Cup winner Alex Morgan has ended her loan spell at Tottenham Hotspur and will return to the U.S., the Women's Super League (WSL) club said on Monday.

We have seen several female footballers take a break from the game to start a family — and I say "break" very lightly! These female ballers play until they can’t play anymore. The drive and motivation they have to get back on the pitch as fast as they can is truly inspiring. Alex Morgan, Sydney Leroux and Jessica McDonald are just a few badass ballers that truly represent what a Super Mom entails.

After a six-year hiatus, USWNT manager Vlatko Andonovski decided two Mewis’ were better than one. He was definitely right!
