1-0 USA

Alex Morgan with a powerful left footer on a runaway one-on-one. Youngest player on the team, at 22 years old. Nice one. Worthy of any video montage even if it weren’t the possible World Cup winner.

[ADDENDUM: On second thought, I’m surprised she’s the youngest on the team. Women’s sports are often dominated by extremely young athletes –see tennis– and I would have expected the World Cup team to have quite a few college team members.]
