Alex Morgan Misses The Women's Olympic Tournament!

The End Of A Spectacular Era

The United States Women's National Team Forward Will Not Be Competing In The Upcoming Olympics.

Alexandra Morgan Carrasco, born Alexandra Patricia Morgan on July 2, 1989, is an American professional soccer player who plays as a striker. Morgan has been left off the roster for next month's women's Olympic tournament in France, likely ending one of the most spectacular careers in the sport.

Morgan has made 224 appearances for the US Women's national team, scoring 123 goals and recording 53 assists. She helped lead the US to a gold medal in the 2012 Olympics and World Cup titles in 2015 and 2019.

Morgan's absence from the Olympic team is a major blow to the United States' hopes of winning a fourth consecutive gold medal. She is one of the most dangerous players in the world and her goalscoring ability will be sorely missed.

The US Women's National Team will still be favored to win the Olympics, but Morgan's absence will make it a more difficult task. She is a special player who has been a key part of the team's success for many years.
