Morgan and the U.S. Women’s National Team play Colombia in a friendly at America First Field on Thursday.
Alex Morgan — the woman named twice to Time Magazine’s Most 100 Influential People list, the two-time World Cup winner, perhaps the most endorsed female athlete in the world — stood beside the field where it all began for her 13 years ago on Tuesday.
On Thursday, Morgan and the rest of the team play Colombia in Sandy at 7 p.m. The pair of matches — the team also plays Colombia in San Diego on Oct. 29 — is primarily to begin the rebuilding process after the team’s stunning defeats.
