Not only can U.S. women’s soccer player Alex Morgan play, but she can also model. The 25-year-old already has an impressive resume as one of Sports Illustrated’s gorgeous swimsuit beauties.
She can now add being on the cover of Sports Illustrated’s June 9 issue in her national soccer uniform with fellow teammates, Abby Wambach, Sydney Leoux, Alex Morgan and midfielder Carli Lloyd to her list of accolades.
Catch Morgan in action on the soccer field when the U.S. Women’s National Team goes up against Australia during the squad’s group match against the team from “down under” on Monday.
Morgan credits Wambach as a fellow teammate who she puts all of her hope into when talking about soccer. This is a very reassuring trait considering other teams can’t play the way they are used to playing when facing her on the field.
"I have complete trust in Abby," Morgan recently told Sports Illustrated. "Opponents have to play a different way when Abby's on the field. That's crazy."
