On Thursday, April 4, the U.S. Women’s Nation Team hosted Australia at the Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Colorado. The match is just one of the many friendlies the team has played in the lead up to the World Cup in France this summer.
Just 14 minutes into the game, striker Alex Morgan dribbled her way into the box and slotted home the opening goal of the match while falling to the ground.
The goal was the epitome of the attacker’s style of play. She showed off her stamina and wonderful ability to dribble in and around several defenders, before, most importantly, completing the opportunity with a lovely, curled effort into the far corner.
