    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    It's been quite the year for Albert, whose rise has been fast and successful. She left the University of Notre Dame early to join the Parisian side, which was then followed by a USWNT debut in early December. Now, she's capped off the year with her first PSG goal - and has surely caught the attention of Emma Hayes, who is slowly thinking about the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
