Gotham can't stop NWSL's top scorer.
Alex Morgan will rejoin the U.S. national team playing arguably the best soccer of her life.
Morgan leads the NWSL with 11 goals in 10 games, already the best season mark in her seven years with at least nine contests.She’s outsprinting opponents and maintaining stamina. Her deft first touches, which have led to several goals, exhibit a trait that most opponents — including NJ/NY Gotham Sunday — sorely lack. With each foot, she has pinpointed grounders and liners.
Seeing the game clearly enhances her physical advantages, such as Sunday when the Cal alum twice anticipated where the ball would go, zoomed toward the goal and knocked home dead-eye passes from her former Orlando Pride protege Taylor Kornieck and veteran Sofia Jakobsson to build a 2-0 lead late in the first half.
Dating to training camp, she built a rapport with teammates, sharing soccer wisdom accrued in more than 100 NWSL matches, three World Cup seasons and three Olympics. Then, on the field, she showed how to diversify the attack and cash checks.
