Alex Morgan turned to an old classic after finding out that the U.S. women’s national team would face European champion England in a Women’s World Cup tuneup on Oct. 7, calling back a famous goal celebration that she once trotted out against the Lionesses on the World Cup stage.
Morgan shared her elation after U.S. Soccer tweeted a photo of the tentatively scheduled match that included a previous, familiar hand gesture by the American striker, who feigned sipping tea after scoring vs. England in the 2019 Women’s World Cup semifinals.
