USWNT Star Alex Morgan Creates Historic Record After Scoring Stunning Goal Against Brazil in SheBelieves Cup

USWNT soccer legend, Alex Morgan has added yet another achievement to her name. The soccer star has been a pioneer for women’s soccer all over the world. At the prime age of 33, she shows no signs of aging or fading away. She continues her impeccable goal-scoring form for the USWNT. It’s safe to say that Alex Morgan has become a role model for every young women soccer player out there. The soccer legend is currently playing in the SheBelieves Cup.

The goal scorer managed to break a unique record against Brazil in the cup competition.

Morgan achieves a unique accolade with the USWNT!

Morgan has been a phenomenal striker of the ball for quite a few years. The USWNT star is currently still in her prime. The born leader has always led by example. Alex Morgan scored a stunning goal against Brazil in USWNT’s final game of the SheBelieves Cup.

During stoppage time of the first half, Mallory Swanson tried her luck to curl one past the keeper inside the box. However, she was denied by the opposition’s defense. The stadium then lit up after the ball fell to Morgan.

The star forward then took a touch and steamed her shot right past the keeper. It was a stunning shot from outside the box considering the curl and dip on the ball. It’s obvious that the entire stadium went crazy after that. With that goal, she managed to create a historic record. Alex Morgan became the first individual to score 14 goals as a mother.

She narrowly passed Joy Fawcett’s record with the stunning goal. This goal also helped the USWNT take the lead against Brazil. The team’s lead was then doubled by Mallory Swanson in the second half. The USWNT ended up winning the game 2-1, despite a last-ditch effort by the Brazilians.

It’s been a hell of a ride for Morgan to come back to soccer after giving birth to her first child. She once revealed that her family supported her immensely during that phase and also motivated her to get back to the sport.

Keeping that aside, the USWNT is now most importantly preparing for soccer’s biggest tournament.

Andonovski battles against time to find the best squad!

USWNT head coach, Vlatko Andonovski, is going through a tough time trying to find his best players. The simple reason is that US Soccer is currently overflowing with talent. Megan Rapinoe recently praised a young defender and also claimed that the competition for spots in the starting XI is extremely competitive. However, the SheBelieves Cup would have immensely helped Andonovski.

In a post-match conference, Andonovski said, “It just shows what this team is all about. I mean, every position is going to be a battle regardless of where they are on the field”, as per Fox Sports. One of the squad’s most critical players, Megan Rapinoe, is also easing herself into the squad after recovering from an injury.

Without a doubt, the USWNT head coach has a tough job on his hands for the upcoming FIFA Women’s World Cup. Alex Morgan and the team will face Vietnam, the Dutch, and Portugal in the group stage.
