‘So worth it’ – USWNT legend Alex Morgan reacts to winning trophies as a mom & talks up gold medal potential at 2024 Olympics following W Gold Cup triumph

The 34-year-old forward, who has 220 caps for her country, is now the proud parent of three-year-old Charlie. She is getting the chance to watch her mother in action at major international tournaments, with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/uswnt-lindsey-horan-lifts-first-ever-concacaf-w-gold-cup-victory-over-brazil/blt0b6135a44eab9334" target="_blank">ultimate success enjoyed in continental competition for 2024</a>.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Morgan told <a href="https://twitter.com/AttackingThird/status/1767022612650078538" target="_blank">CBS Sports</a> after <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/scenes-uswnt-stars-alex-morgan-sophia-smith-chug-champagne-w-gold-cup-trophy-winning-habit/blt90e7367b9f563e68" target="_blank">adding another medal to her collection</a> as Charlie watched on from the stands: “It’s just so incredibly special to share these moments with her and for her to have the opportunity to join me on a lot of these trips. This is such an important time in her life and I don’t want to miss it and I don’t think she likes to miss me, so we’re doing this together. It’s tough, no doubt about it, but it’s so worth it.”

WHAT MORGAN SAID

The USWNT have got back on the trophy trail following a forgettable showing at the 2023 Women’s World Cup, with there <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/captain-america-lindsey-horan-explains-why-skippering-uswnt-becoming-easier-inspiring-youngsters-w-gold-cup-glory/blt2a1a4ee5f3947253" target="_blank">gold medal glory for them to try and chase down</a> later in the year at the Paris Olympics. Morgan added on the potential in an exciting young squad: “We started off the year really strong and I think it’s important to build on this. We have a lot of young players and winning this trophy is so huge. "They overcame all the pressure and nerves, a penalty shootout, there was really everything in this tournament. It’s just such great experience as we look to prepare for the Olympics. As the Olympic roster is smaller in size than this one, it’s a battle for sure on who is going to make the roster. I think a lot of players made names for themselves in this tournament and that was the point of it. For me coming in late, it was just make as much of an impact as I can, try to being a trophy home and I’m very happy in this moment.”

THE BIGGER PICTURE

The United States are back up to second in the FIFA women’s world rankings, with only Spain ahead of them, and will believe that the future is bright now that the likes of <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/perfect-record-teen-sensation-jaedyn-shaw-uswnt-history-goal-registered-stormy-w-gold-cup-clash-canada/blt04dbac9989d5bd0f" target="_blank">Jaedyn Shaw, Korbin Albert and Trinity Rodman are making an impact</a> at the highest possible level.
